Good ! I've put in the patch, and, at the same time split out all ancient entries into a separate font: tex fonts (and PS fonts as well) can only have 256 glyphs. Almost half of the feta font was taken up by the various ancient glyphs. This means that all ancient notation files will be broken by the next release. I'm not sure what the proper solution is for allocating the glyphs. Maybe there should be separate font file for every "edition" (i.e. feta-hufnagel, feta-medica, etc.), so you can do \property Voice. NoteHead #'font-family = #'feta-hufnagel to set ancient notation. This approach would also get rid of a lot of conditional code for setting the glyph style. For now, the ancient font is called parmesan. In the passing I also noticed that two the noticeably rounded characters (leger line and sharp) use bigger values for blotting stroke (1.3 and 2.0 blot_diameter respectively). Since I like those characters, probably one thing we should try is increasing blot_diameter. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.cs.uu.nl/~hanwen/ _______________________________________________ Lilypond-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
