Hilary,
What exactly are you wanting to do? Maybe there's a workaround...

Hi Abraham
I'm combining the scores of a number of songs into a single book. At
20pt, the songs (so far) range from one to six pages long. I want to
set
smaller staff/font sizes for some of the songs to keep page turns more
manageable, while retaining my preferred fonts (Linux Libertine and
Biolinum).

Hilary,
There (still) isn't a good answer to meet your needs. However, if you
don't intend to make the non-default staffs too much larger/smaller,
then you can do something like this and the fonts get preserved. So,
here's something that may get you through what you need. Be aware,
however, that the horizontal spacing doesn't scale with the changes,
unfortunately, but keeping your scaled scores within -3 to +3 should
still be okay if they aren't too complex:
\version "2.18.2"
\paper {
indent = 0
}
\paper {
#(define fonts
(make-pango-font-tree
"Linux Libertine O"
"Linux Biolinum O"
"monospace"
(/ staff-height pt 20)))
}
pattern = \repeat unfold 4 { c'4 d' e' f' }
words = \repeat unfold 4 \lyricmode { one two three four }
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\new Voice= "one" \pattern
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" {
\words
}
>>
\header {
piece = "Normal Size"
}
\layout {}
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\new Voice= "one" \pattern
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" {
\words
}
>>
\header {
piece = "Smaller Size (-3)"
}
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
fontSize = #-3
\override StaffSymbol.staff-space = #(magstep -3)
}
\context {
\Lyrics
\override LyricText.font-size = #-3
\override LyricText.font-family = #'sans % for example, but
unnecessary
}
}
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\new Voice= "one" \pattern
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" {
\words
}
>>
\header {
piece = "Larger Size (+3)"
}
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
fontSize = #3
\override StaffSymbol.staff-space = #(magstep 3)
}
\context {
\Lyrics
\override LyricText.font-size = #3
}
}
}
The underlying problem you are seeing in Issue 1129 comes from a line
of code that redefines the "fonts" variable when you call
"#(layout-set-staff-size ...)" in the \layout block. In addition, this
function doesn't seem to scale the staff-height correctly for some
reason when it shows up in the \layout block.
Hope that helps!
