Re: v2.19.82 documentation unusable?

[Patrick Karl]

I thank everyone for the replies.  I’ll just wait till it’s fixed.

I tried to find a version of Emmentaler-20 I could install on my mac, but had no luck.  Is that a way out?   I have to admit that fonts are pretty much a black hole for me.

I have lately been trying to move from v2.19.81 to 2.19.82.  The
biggest problem I see at this early stage is that
v2.19.82 documentation is apparently dependent upon a new font,
Emmentaler-20.  Or at least I
get an error message such as:

Cannot find or create the font Emmentaler-20. Some characters may
not display or print correctly.

or

Cannot find or create the font TeXGyroSchola-Regular. Some
characters may not display or print correctly.

I have downloaded the pdf version of the documentation.  I’m running
OS X 10.11.6 on a mac pro and a macbook pro.

Does anyone have any helpful information here?  Does any of the
documentation address this problem, which I have not encountered in
the past (I’ve been running LilyPond since 2.14).

It's a known problem, see full discussion here:

Phil, David, any news about it?

I thought we decided to classify it as "fluke" (happening rarely and we
don't know why) and wanted to just see whether 2.19.83 looked ok again.
That 2.19.83 is stuck in the pipeline because of build problems and lack
of personal resources is, of course, doubly unfortunate because of the
documentation problem.
