There have been some reports of similar problems on the mailing
list, but I cannot recall having seen any universal solution. Obviously
the installation works for most people.
Anyway, do you have any specific reason to use the Cygwin version?
Otherwise, I would recommend to use the "native" windows versions
available at http://lilypond.org/web/install/.

Hi there - having heard good things about Lilypond and needing to typeset for
SATB, I thought I'd give it a go.
However I cannot get lyrics working - using the following code (taken from the
lyrics tutorial):
<<
\relative {
r4 c \times 2/3 { f g g }
\times 2/3 { g4( a2) }
}
\addlyrics { I want to break free }
>>
I end up with only the r's and f's visible when viewing the resultant pdf in
Acrobat - and the style of the f suggests that this is supposed to be a forte
marking. Is Lilypond somehow picking up the wrong font? I found something on
the web mentioning a cure for font-related troubles by installing tetex-base,
but this doesn't seem to have helped.
Clues appreciated!
I'm running Cygwin on XP and used the standard Cygwin installer for the binary
package. Contents of bug.txt below.
Cheers,
