Re: More, but little, PDF bugs

Hi Mats,

that's right. To get good output with the ecpfb fonts, you have to use T1
encoding.

However, just compiling the score with -Ppdf without Maarten's fonts
(-ulilypond) gives fairly good results, too, providing that a recent ghostscript
version is used. Both options in conjunction interfere with each other.

Just to set things straight.
