RE: font metric

[Fairchild]

These chunks are taken from the program reference for LilyPond version
2.8.5,
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.8/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Scheme-fu
nctions.html#Scheme-functions :

- Function: ly:font-design-size font
Given the font metric font, return the design size, relative to the
current output-scale. 

- Function: ly:font-file-name font
Given the font metric font, return the corresponding file name. 

- Function: ly:font-magnification font
Given the font metric font, return the magnification, relative to the
current outputs-cale. 

- Function: ly:font-name font
Given the font metric font, return the corresponding name. 

- Function: ly:font-sub-fonts font
Given the font metric font of an OpenType font, return the names of the
subfonts within font. 

What does a 'font metric font' look like?  Is there an example using any of
these Scheme functions?

In several places, documentation refers to font metric but I have not
found a syntax definition or an example of its use.  

Specifically, in the function: ly:font-filename font (given the font metric
font, return the corresponding file name) what is the syntax for font?

Han-Wen -

Thanks, but still too cryptic for me.

Indeed, you have added to my unknowns list.  The function
ly:grob-default-font seems to require an argument 'grob.'  How to denote a
specific grob?

I'm searching for a way to interrogate the default/current font name, then
add to LSR entry File Information.

unicode font (metric?) problem

[Marcus Brinkmann]

Hi,

the following input file prints the lyrics like this:

1   4
  

The superscript 1 is placed correctly.  Same for superscript 2 and 3
(0x00B9, 0x00B2, 0x00B3 respectively).  The superscript 4 is placed
incorrectly.  Same for superscript 0, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (0x207x).

I don't even know where to start looking for the root of the problem.
I use Debian testing/unstable, lilypond 2.6.3.

Thanks,
Marcus

% superscript-numbers.ly

\version 2.6.0

melody =  \context Voice { c'' c'' }
  \lyricsto  \new Lyrics { ..�¹ ..⁴ } 

\score { \new Staff { \melody } \layout { indent = 0.0 } }
