Ah, I see now that courier was a poor choice, because Lilypond has its own courier. I'm trying to get to a font that's just installed on the computer, Palatino, to be precise. So far, I've been unsuccessful in my attempt. I found a thread from kieren a while ago that mentions, "Pango on OSX can only use Truetype fonts (including dfonts) that contain only one font variant". Unfortunately, the answer is apparently in a regression test document, font-family-override.ly and I don't know where to find input/regression (which is where I assume from the documentation this file would live). I'm on MacOSX 10.4.
