Re: optical recognition for input
Is there any particular reason you are trying to compile from source? github.com/Audiveris/audiveris/releases has an MSI you can run which should install everything you need to run it. Kevin.

Yes, I was using 12 because that seemed to be the one Oracle's website wanted to send me. I'll back up to 11. I did look in the expanded src tree and found a blue million *.java files. I assume that the build process needs to compile all of them. Won't I need the JDK for that and not just the JRE? I'm not sure; been a while since I did any Java. thanks, I'll have a go
Re: fonts on windows
Ok, so I got this to work after followed some of the other instructions on this thread. Specifically, I needed to reinstall the fonts on Windows using right click > install for all users Then cleared the .lilypond-fonts... directory Then run lilypond again, and that worked.

Re: optical recognition for input
I haven't tried building from development branch, but from experience, the stable branch only works with JRE 11, not "11 or greater." I use MX Linux and JRE 11 is readily available. Not sure about other operating systems. On Tue, 18 Jan 2022, 02:56 James B. Wilkinson, wrote: > > > > On Jan 15, 2022, at 4:56 AM, Adam M.

Let me know > if that's not the case. > > Best, > Abraham > As to your first question, Either these fonts came from having bought an app like FrameMaker, In Design, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. Or I got it from a free font site. I don't recall specifically. In general, I have been accumulating them over many years, and have been porting my set of useful fonts from box to box. The different family members of this font show up in the Windows fonts control panel as: Highlander ITC TT Bold Highlander Md ITC TT Medium Highlander Md OS ITC TT Medium Highlander Md SC ITC TT Medium Highlander OS ITC TT Bold Not sure if that clarifies anything about the provenance of this font. In any case, I tried clearing out the directory with "lilypond-fonts" in it. Which, in my case, is called lilypond-fonts.cache-2 However, that does not appear to have an effect. That directory does get repopulated when I run lilypond again. But lilypond still does not find the font, either by using it in the doc, or listing in with lilypond -dshow-available-fonts To see if it had something specifically to do with this font, I also tried to add a new free font, and was able to add it to Windows fonts, but it also did not show up in lilypond. https://www.1001freefonts.com/blue-highway-d-type.font Thanks for the help.
