My Ponding Friends,

The votes are in and the survey is now closed! The winning name, chosen by
the people, for the SCORE look-a-like music font is...


*Scorlatti*


It was a close race and it was fun to see it take a couple of unexpected
turns throughout the week. Actually, *Scordato* was ahead most of the time,
so I had already started putting that name in everything, but *Scorlatti*
pulled ahead at the last minute. Here are the complete results of the 49
responders (where each could have made 2 choices):

- Scorlatti: 16
- Scordato: 15
- Nannerl: 10
- Amadeus: 9
- Partitura: 8
- Schmied: 6
- Scordatura: 6
- Scordare: 6
- Gottlieb: 2

A big thanks to all who participated! Sorry if it wasn't the one you voted
for. Let's give a hand to David Kastrup for suggesting this name.

And BTW, we are just making some last adjustments to the new music fonts
website, so stay tuned! The patch to make it even possible to use other
music fonts is also under official review!

Regards,
Abraham

Larry,

Did you manually install another, more recent version of LilyPond? If 
so, then you'll probably want to tell Frescobaldi about it :) This is 
done via "Edit" > "Preferences" > "LilyPond Preferences", then add the 
more updated binary to the list.


Oh, and make sure you put the "font.scm" file I attached in the 
corresponding "scm" directory as that new version of LilyPond. 
Otherwise it will continue to throw an error since the 
"set-global-fonts" function doesn't exist otherwise.


Good luck!

Urs,

Here's the newest version of "font.scm". I decided to create my own 
function after all so that make-pango-font-tree (at least from the 
user's perspective) follows the same syntax, it is only changed under 
the covers. I'm sure this will trip people up, though, so we'll need to 
discuss an appropriate solution for that. It doesn't make much sense to 
me to have all these different functions available that all kind of do 
the same thing, but behave slightly different from each other. That 
will only confuse people.


The function "add-music-fonts" still needs to be modified for all this 
to work.


I call my function (drum roll, please...): "set-global-fonts". It's 
different in that ALL the font choices are optional, keyword arguments. 
Thus, if I only want to change the notation font, that's all I need to 
specify. Here's a minimal example showing all the optional, keyword 
arguments (and you can't just put in the string values! They MUST be 
preceded by the key identifier, but any and all can be omitted):


\version "2.18.2"
\include "english.ly"

already! The results so far are very interesting. I'll announce the
"official" name change on Aug. 4 some time.

The current set is too limited, and I think it has to be some new font that 
comes with the distribution for it to work properly. For example, the Persian 
microtonal accidentals koron and sori are not supported, even though there is a 
file for typesetting Persian music. So one reason to not use microtonal symbols 
is that there is no support for it, but actually some do anyhow without being 
able to get the right rendering.

 So far, there are now 9 music fonts in addition to LilyPond's 
default

 *Emmentaler* (also called /Feta/ in the official docs).

BTW, is there some effort adding more microtonal symbols? LilyPond 
can now properly handle microtonal key signatures, it seems.




Hans,

Good question. If you are glyphs you are referring to are found the 
default font set,


http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/the-feta-font#accidental-glyphs

then this is already supported in the new fonts :) I made sure that the 
entire glyph set is supported, even if they have to fall back to the 
Emmentaler ones in some places because I couldn't (or didn't feel like 
I needed to) come up with one that matched the other glyphs (like the 
shape-noteheads).


I, personally, don't use the microtonal glyphs, but I'm happy to 
continue to support them as long as someone uses them! I don't plan on 
creating other fonts specific to microtonal notation (e.g., Sagittal, 
etc.).


Regards,
Abraham

All,

I knew this was an awesome group, but I didn't realize how awesome 
until now. Thanks for your suggestions. It looks like we've got these 
options for a rename of the Amadeus (SCORE look-a-like) font:


- Schmied
- Partitura
- Gottlieb
- Scorlatti
- Nannerl
- Scordato
- Scordatura
- Scordare

Each has its own meaning that the contributors kindly indicated in 
their posts. I think we'll freeze the choices for now and let people 
vote :)

Would we dare call it Partita? This is a once-named font for Sibelius and

Urs,

I'm not familiar with Henle's font or the "Universal Edition" font (other
than the one sample I've seen from you, attached). If you (or someone)
could provide me with some example scores so I know what to look for, I
could give it a go when I've got some time.


I'll send you some examples privately later this day when I'm at the 
right computer.




Alternatively, if someone with experience (and time) wanted to use
FontForge to put together a glyph set (similar to the Feta set
, but
don't worry about the ancient and shape-note noteheads), then I can build
the font files from that. If someone wants to do this, just know that
LilyPond expects the glyphs to be scaled in relation to a 250 em-unit
staff-space. In other words, a 5-line staff is 1000 em-units tall. Don't
worry about positioning the glyphs, just get the right size and I can place
them later.

This is getting exciting!

Regards,
Abraham

P.S. And yes, I plan on integrating examples/samples on
fonts.openlilylib.org so users know what they're getting. Good
recommendation on the stylesheets. What should be the naming convention for
the basic, font only, stylesheet and the other "house-style" ones?


I'd say there should be one stylesheet with the font name and something 
like "plain", "basic", "pure" or similar as a pre- or suffix.

This will only switch the font without further modifications.
And optionally there should be a second file, e.g. 
"Style.ily" which would additionally change settings that 
"we" feel to be necessary to make that font look good (i.e. mainly 
adjustments of line widths, maybe also of horizontal spacing).
Finally there _can_ be files making the scores look like something 
specific, e.g. a publisher or a notation program. But it would depend on 
each case whether the second and the third are actually necessary or 
sufficiently different from each other.




P.P.S. You don't like "Amadeus"? I feel rejected :)


Well, it's not that I don't like it, it feels like a good name for a 
notation font. But it's similarly unappropriate as would be "Finale" or 
"Sibelius" (you know that Amadeus is an out-of-development but still 
used notation program?)



I guess I'm okay with
that... What shall we call it? Maybe something to do with SCORE itself or
with Leland Smith (the author)? I'm open to suggestions.


"Schmied"? (German translation for smith, the profession)
"Partitura"? (well, that's obvious ;-) )

2014-07-26 1:14 GMT+02:00 tisimst :


All,

I couldn't wait any longer, so here's a formal announcement about the new
music fonts that I've been working on, by way of example. They are all
100%
LilyPond compatible for both PDF and SVG output. They all (except
Gonville)
support the full LilyPond glyph set (up to LilyPond version 2.18.2).

So far, there are now 9 music fonts in addition to LilyPond's default
*Emmentaler* (also called /Feta/ in the official docs). Here's a taste
test:

- *Amadeus* (SCORE look-a-like):

SCORE comparison 

Can you guess which one is really engraved using SCORE?



Bottom one:
- slurs have different thickness and shape,
- stems and ledgers are thinner than in LilyPond,
- staccato placement on stems differ,
- rest placement in polyphony differs,
- "dim" font is different

Nevertheless, it is very similar :)



I think it would be good to put the stylesheet stuff in openlilylib.
As long as we don't distribute the fonts themselves with LilyPond it seems
strange to provide stylesheets with LilyPond. And having them in the
openlilylib library is still very accessible.

I suggest defining (at least) two "stylesheets" for each font: One which
is simply a shorthand for activating the font(s) and another one providing
additional style adjustments that may be necessary (like Joram
described/implemented in the SMuFL adaptor). Additionally there can be one
or more stylesheets to achieve a certain "house" style.

Having them in openlilylib will also make it easier to improve the styles
collaboratively.

Ah, BTW: What would be absolutely awesome is a font like Henle's notation
font. I would really like to see how such a font would behave together with
Kieren's amazing Henle style sheets.




  - *Cadence* (a tweaked Emmentaler by me):


Grieg's Piano Concerto in A-minor (Adagio) 



Nice!  I'd say that the beams are a tad too thick, but looks good overall.

  - *Gutenberg1939* (old removeable-type style):


Canon in 3 Voices 



Looks fancy!

  - *Haydn* (like a classic Edition Peters style):


Magnificat 

You can compare this with a commercial version (Kapellmeister) on the
Sibelius Blog from a few months back:

In all I'd say there are a number of fonts that really give LilyPond a 
wide spectrum of styles, while some others are comparably similar (which 
doesn't make them less valuable, of course).


Well, _if_ there's going to be an infrastructure to switch notation 
fonts in LilyPond, we could consider continuing our effort for a 
"Universal Edition" font that we have started.
In that case we wouldn't have any remapping issues, because that's a 
modification of Emmentaler itself. But on the other hand it's quite 
awkward to work on such a modification in the Metafont sources themselves.

Right now there is a request to use another font at the german lilypond forum.
http://www.lilypondforum.de/index.php?topic=1793.0
Though, I have to admit that I followed the discussions about using
other fonts not very close.
It would be great to have the possibility to see/download the current
coding/fonts from one site.
Though the further linking from http://fonts.openlilylib.org/ seems to

Is there an option to rename that font?

We have fonts.openlilylib.org as a temporary download location, but we could 
keep that for a permanent place (if not openlilylib.org/fonts seems more 
suitable).

Definitely!

Bottom one:
- slurs have different thickness and shape,
- stems and ledgers are thinner than in LilyPond,
- staccato placement on stems differ,
- rest placement in polyphony differs,
- "dim" font is different

Nevertheless, it is very similar :)

Nice!  I'd say that the beams are a tad too thick, but looks good overall.

"Our" version looks better :D  In particular, our notehead shape is
much more like the original - although the flags are significantly
differrent.

It would be great to have the engravings done in the same page layout,
for better comparison.

Hmm.   Somehow this doesn't feel like Ross (although maybe it's
because i've only seen the scans, not the print).  It seems to me that
staves and other lines should be thicker.

I LOVE IT!!
And i would also love to see a post on Lily blog, and a news item -
this deserves a lot of publicity, it's a major feature IMO!

We definitely should gather these in some visible place when all the
infrastructure for using these fonts is stable.  I think it actually
deserves to be put on the website!

thanks a ton!

See the new music fonts in action

[tisimst]

All,

I couldn't wait any longer, so here's a formal announcement about the new
music fonts that I've been working on, by way of example. They are all 100%
LilyPond compatible for both PDF and SVG output. They all (except Gonville)
support the full LilyPond glyph set (up to LilyPond version 2.18.2).

So far, there are now 9 music fonts in addition to LilyPond's default
*Emmentaler* (also called /Feta/ in the official docs). Here's a taste test:

- *Amadeus* (SCORE look-a-like):

SCORE comparison <https://db.tt/pN6iRsgH>  

Can you guess which one is really engraved using SCORE?

- *Cadence* (a tweaked Emmentaler by me):

Grieg's Piano Concerto in A-minor (Adagio) <https://db.tt/icYgT0M3>  

- *Gonville* (originally by Simon Tatham):

Nalada (Gonville) <https://db.tt/wiyHmoIo>  

Actually, this one is mostly untouched which means it doesn't support the
ancient notation glyphs (yet).

- *Gutenberg1939* (old removeable-type style):

Canon in 3 Voices <https://db.tt/RBjSKBLK>  

- *Haydn* (like a classic Edition Peters style):

Magnificat <https://db.tt/CX14jc3z>  

You can compare this with a commercial version (Kapellmeister) on the
Sibelius Blog from a few months back:

Original Score
<http://www.sibeliusblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Magnificat-in-D-BWV-243.pdf>
  
Kapellmeister on Sibelius
<http://www.sibeliusblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/magnificat-Full-Score-dragged.pdf>
  

- *LilyJAZZ* (a pseudo-handwritten style, originally by Torsten Hämmerle):

Crazy Jazz Tests <https://db.tt/T1WwGLiz>  

This has been upgraded a bunch, by myself and others, including a complete
glyph set (notation and text) and updated chord font.

- *Paganini* (remapping of Kristof Bastiensen's /Parnassus/, originally for
MuseScore):

Nalada (Paganini) <https://db.tt/GdyXV0kX>  

- *Profondo* (Bravura anyone? This is a remapping of Daniel Spreadbury's
SMuFL-compliant font):

Nalada (Profondo) <https://db.tt/1B9JoPz0>  

Compare this with  Bravura in Sibelius
<http://blog.steinberg.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/fibich-bravura.pdf>  .

- *Ross* (from Ted Ross's famous notation book /The Art of Music Engraving
and Processing/, and named after him):

Nalada (Ross) <https://db.tt/5uHcypFg>  

I realize that this is a little like drinking from a fire hose, since this
has never been done like this before, but if you're like me, I think you'll
like having lots of choices. These are all properly licensed, so they will
be free to use, copy, and share! 

If you have any other ideas for music fonts that you'd like to use/create,
drop me a line and we'll talk :)

More to come, so stay tuned! Let me know if any of the above links is
broken.

Happy Engraving!
Abraham
