makes it possible to enter lines of text that can spread over multiple
pages:

-Three families of text fonts are made available: the @emph{roman}
-(serif) font, that defaults to New Century Schoolbook, the
-@emph{sans} font and the monospaced @emph{typewriter} font -- these
-last two families are determined by the Pango installation.

+@code{00-lilypond-fonts.conf}.

Each family may include different shapes and series. The following
example demonstrates the ability to select alternate families, shapes,
series and sizes. The value supplied to @code{font-size} is the
required change from the default size.
