Re: SVG fonts

Andrew,

I have seen similar hit-and-miss results with text fonts when exporting to
SVG. I can't tell what's driving the inconsistent results.

Best,
Abraham

SVG fonts

[Andrew Bernard]

I am attempting to produce SVG output from lilypond 2.19.31.

The score uses specific fonts, such as the following:

  \override DynamicText.font-name = "Noto Serif Bold Italic"

The current release produces a less than useful error when the SVG font cannot 
be found:

warning: cannot find SVG font #f

I have prepared a patch for this which now gives the name of the file that 
cannot be found.

To come to the next point, I have used fontforge to make an SVG version of Noto 
Serif Bold Italic, and placed it in the lilypond svg font directory as 
notoserif-bolditalic.svg (the name of which I was able to determine via the 
above mentioned warning patch I have developed).

But lilypond produces the following error with this SVG font installed:

Layout output to 
`exp-svg-font.svg'.../usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/regex.scm:121:22: In procedure 
vector-ref in expression (vector-ref match matchnum):
/usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/regex.scm:121:22: Wrong type argument in position 2: 
1

The score does not compile.

Hence, two questions.
Can you use fonts converted to SVG by fontforge in lilypond?
If so, what is this error?
Andrew

Re: SVG fonts

[Andrew Bernard]

More investigation on fonts for SVG.

The following errors out if the font-name property for DynamicText is set. The 
font-name specification for TextScript renders correctly.

\version "2.19.31"

{
  \override DynamicText.font-name = "Noto Serif Bold Italic"
  c''\p
  \override TextScript.font-name = "Noto Serif Bold Italic"
  c''^\markup { foo }
}

According to the NR DynamicText supports the font-interface, so one ought to 
e=be able to specify the font-name property.

error:

Layout output to 
`exp-svg-font.svg'.../usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/regex.scm:121:22: In procedure 
vector-ref in expression (vector-ref match matchnum):
/usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/regex.scm:121:22: Wrong type argument in position 2: 
1

In relation to my question in prior post as to whether fontforge can be used to 
generate SVG fonts for lilypond, I see that the emmentaler SVG fonts are 
created with font forge, so I assume this means it is the right tool for the 
job?
