+@cindex markup text
+
+@cindex typeset text
+
+The internal mechanism to typeset texts is accessed with the keyword
+@code{\markup}. Within markup mode, you can enter texts similar to
+lyrics. They are simply entered, while commands use the backslash @code{\}.
+@cindex markup
+
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,relative=1]
+c1^\markup { hello }
+c1_\markup { hi there }
+c1^\markup { hi \bold there, is \italic anyone home? }
+@end lilypond
+
+@cindex font switching
+
+The markup in the example demonstrates font switching commands. The
+command @code{\bold} and @code{\italic} apply to the first following
+word only; enclose a set of texts with braces to apply a command
+to more words:
+@example
+\markup @{ \bold @{ hi there @} @}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+For clarity, you can also do this for single arguments, e.g.,
+
+@example
+\markup @{ is \italic @{ anyone @} home @}
+@end example
+
+@cindex font size, texts
+
+
+In markup mode you can compose expressions, similar to mathematical
+expressions, XML documents, and music expressions. You can stack
+expressions grouped vertically with the command @code{\column}.
+Similarly, @code{\center-align} aligns texts by their center lines:
+
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,relative=1]
+c1^\markup { \column { a bbbb \line { c d } } }
+c1^\markup { \center-align { a bbbb c } }
+c1^\markup { \line { a b c } }
+@end lilypond
+
+
+Markups can be stored in variables and these variables
+may be attached to notes, like
+@example
+allegro = \markup @{ \bold \large @{ Allegro @} @}
+ @{ a^\allegro b c d @}
+@end example
+
+
+Some objects have alignment procedures of their own, which cancel out
+any effects of alignments applied to their markup arguments as a
+whole. For example, the @internalsref{RehearsalMark} is horizontally
+centered, so using @code{\mark \markup @{ \left-align .. @}} has no
+effect.
+
+
+@seealso
+
+Init files: @file{scm/@/new@/-markup@/.scm}.
+
+
+@refbugs
+
+Kerning or generation of ligatures is only done when the @TeX{}
+backend is used. In this case, LilyPond does not account for them so
+texts will be spaced slightly too wide.
+
+Syntax errors for markup mode are confusing.
+
+
+@node Text encoding
+@subsection Text encoding
+
+LilyPond uses the Pango library to format multi-lingual texts, and
+does not perform any input-encoding conversions. This means that any
+text, be it title, lyric text, or musical instruction containing
+non-ASCII characters, must be utf-8. Easiest to enter such texts is
+by using a Unicode-aware editor, and save using utf-8 encoding. Most
+popular modern editors have utf-8 support, for example, vim, Emacs,
+jEdit, and GEdit do.
+
+Depending on the fonts installed, the following fragment shows Hebrew
+and Cyrillic lyrics,
+
+@cindex Cyrillic
+@cindex Hebrew
+@cindex ASCII, non
+
+@lilypondfile[fontload]{utf-8.ly}
+
+
+The @TeX{} backend does not handle encoding specially at all. Strings
+in the input are put in the output as-is. Extents of text items in the
+@TeX{} backend, are determined by reading a file created via the
+@file{texstr} backend,
+
+@example
+lilypond -b texstr input/les-nereides.ly
+latex les-nereides.texstr
+@end example
+
+The last command produces @file{les-nereides.textmetrics}, which is
+read when you execute
+
+@example
+lilypond -b tex input/les-nereides.ly
+@end example
+
+Both @file{les-nereides.texstr} and @file{les-nereides.tex} need
+suitable LaTeX wrappers to load appropriate La@TeX{} packages for
+interpreting non-ASCII strings.

+@node Nested scores
+@subsection Nested scores
+
+It is possible to nest music inside markups, by adding a @code{\score}
+block to a markup expression. Such a score must contain a @code{\layout}
+block.
