back over these threads they are always led back to this thread
Thanks, James.
Yes, I saw that thread and it's certainly related to what I'm looking for
... but the font I've been using almost exclusively for the last several years
has all the glyphs and tables needed. In fact, I've been using XeLaTeX with
Lilypond successfully for all that time (since about 2008). Only since I've
obtained 2.13 did I notice the change in font handling --- both a change in
ligature use and optical size selection. I'm also on the same OS since I began
using Lilypond and friends (Mac OS 10.4.11).
While the source code has not changed from 3 years ago (in the example I
sent last time) the results definitely have changed. Even if I don't specify
the font, the default font used by Lilypond no longer renders the ligatures
either --- although that used to work, too.
I've tried to go back to v. 2.12 and the problem is still there. I can't
get v. 2.11 to work since it complains about something in lilypond-book and
returns a "Child 11" or something like that ....
So, IF the engine now needs some explicit call to use ligatures as
before, does anyone know what that is?
