Hello, I want to use alternative fonts for my documents, but I have problems including them. I’m using 2.18.2 with the patch for alternative music fonts (which all work fine).

The fonts are all installed on my system (MacBook, El Capitan) as (lots of) otf files.
Hi Daniel,for Alegreya (Sans), note that you swapped the letters e and r. Then it should work. Those values are not case-sensitive, AFAICS, but quite unforgiving for everything else... Best is to copy-paste from the output of `lilypond -dshow-available-fonts` or `fc-list`, as Andrew already noted. If, however, the font does not show up in that list, you need to refresh the font cache; on Linux, this is done via `fc-cache`, IIRC, on OSX the same command should work.
Cheers, Alexander
