PS. I had sent this message earlier but it keeps showing up as "not sent to
list":

In Frescobaldi, when I output my score to PNG at a high DPI, my hairpins
look beautiful and smooth. So I guess I must be screwing up the PDF
rendering of my LilyPond scores. It's different in Finale 2014, I just hit
Print to --> Adobe PDF. My brain is a bit off today.

Thanks for trying to help me. Sorry I was confusing.
