Comment #5 on issue 982 by address@hidden: web big-html and pdf  
look bad

I did an infeasible amount of work comparing different approaches to  
getting an optimum image.  I concluded that making texi2pdf force the  
images to 6" wide, and using the larger image produced by lily was the best  
approach.  The real issue about this (if we wanted the pdf to look much  
better) is that using bitmapped images in PDF documents is not ideal - it  
would be much better to use lilypond book and to use .eps images.  However,  
-book doesn't appear to have a -dpreview option.  This would make a good  
enhancement.
