That's not it
either. No one is editing PDF files. Let's
say I write template.ly
and make that available online.
Then lots of other people download
template.ly and edit it
for themselves, changing the filename to
my-song.ly and
adding their own notes or whatever. Then they
compile their
own .ly files on their own systems to create their own
PDFs.
Now let's say I design the template to use a non-standard
font.
If the user doesn't have that font, then I want to
specify a
cascading list of alternative font selections, so
that I still have
some degree of control over how the output
looks on a variety of
unknown systems.
