Lyric collision

May ask what parameters? I can only think of Note Spacing.

Tighter or condensed fonts, wouldn’t they allow for even more space between syllables?

Yes, the Engraving Options for lyrics are a bit loose. I’ve always found it a bit odd that hyphens are given more room than spaces.

Engraving Options > Lyrics has settings for how much space should be left between syllables and for hyphens.

No. Condensed fonts take up less horizontal space, meaning that the presence of lyrics using them will affect note spacing (and distortion) to a lesser degree.

Yes, thank you, I thought note spacing was not affected. I used a tighter value and the score looks much better!
