Thanks Robin,

BTW, how can I override font-family and font-series in a "parametric" way?

I tried in several ways, for example:

c'-\tweak text \markup { \normal-text \abs-fontsize #16 \override
#'(font-series . italic) "Some text" } -1

But none worked.

I could obtain the wanted result by using explicit commands, like \italic
or \typewriter:

c'-\tweak text \markup { \normal-text \abs-fontsize #16 \italic "Some text"
} -1

But this is not what I want; I would like to specify font-series and
font-family as a parameter (as I did for \abs-fontsize)...

Best,
P
