The Feta font provides musical symbols at eight different sizes. Each font is tuned for a different staff size: at a smaller size the font becomes heavier, to match the relatively heavier staff lines. The recommended font sizes are listed in the following table:
| font name | staff height (pt) | staff height (mm) | use
|
| feta11 | 11.22 | 3.9 | pocket scores
|
| feta13 | 12.60 | 4.4 |
|
| feta14 | 14.14 | 5.0 |
|
| feta16 | 15.87 | 5.6 |
|
| feta18 | 17.82 | 6.3 | song books
|
| feta20 | 17.82 | 7.0 | standard parts
|
| feta23 | 22.45 | 7.9 |
|
| feta26 | 25.2 | 8.9 |
|
These fonts are available in any sizes. The context property
fontSize and the layout property staff-space (in
StaffSymbol (lilypond-internals)) can be used to tune size for individual
staves. The size of individual staves are relative to the global size,
which can be set in the following manner:
#(set-global-staff-size 14)
This sets the global default size to 14pt staff height, and scales all fonts accordingly.
