It seems like a massive overkill. I'd just use Unicode 2669 (♩)

Can I use the Lilypond extension in LibreOffice to achieve such purposes?

If you want to make sure it looks exactly as in a LilyPond score, you
can create a short score and hide everything except the tempo indication.

Create an OLy snippet based on the "School demo" template and just
copy-paste the following lines into the code field:

% -
{
  \new RhythmicStaff
  \tempo 4=60
}
\layout {
  \context {
    \RhythmicStaff
    \override Clef.stencil = ##f
    \override TimeSignature.stencil = ##f
    \override StaffSymbol.stencil = ##f
  }
}
% -

This should do the trick.

Cheers,
Klaus

I've used the Lilypond extension for LibreOffice in the past with much
success and I highly recommend it for short musical excerpts since the
quality of the format is excellent (much better than using screenshots for
that purpose!). However, if the only thing you need is simply one note, I
would personally just copy and paste the utf symbol from the internet. A
"utf symbol quarter note" Google search should help.

Regards,
Martín.

I an writing text in LibreOffice about metronome-markings. So, I have 
for instance to replace "...quarternote=60..." by "...symbol>=60...", etc.


Can I use the Lilypond extension in LibreOffice to achieve such purposes?
