any ideas how to get a more even - ot lets say rhythmic - distribution of the notes with lyrics?

To add to Kieren’s suggestions:
– Obviously, fonts with an overall smaller width help. LilyPond’s default (Century Schoolbook) isn’t the best choice in that regard. – I even use a script to automatically tweak self-alignment-X for longer syllables, see attachment. It greatly reduces the need for manual intervention. – <https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/2456/> and <https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/2453/>: there’s a lot of work to be done on lyrics, and Janek put some of it up as this ‘Lyrics project’, which unfortunately nobody has tackled yet…

HTH, Simon
