Actually the source files are SVG and those are trivial to edit with Inkscape. 
Then one can export them as PNG files. However what I *have* noticed is that 
this example (text-input-parts-both-annotate.svg) has all the 'main' languages 
and their corresponding PNG file except the 'ca' one (Catalan), this has a PNG 
but no source. My limited knowledge of Spanish, I wondered if the same SVG file 
had been used and just renamed with the 'ca' extentsion, but looking at the two 
PNG files I can see the accents on one letter slope in different directions. 
That doesn't mean it wasn't still taken from the 'es' SVG file but anyway, it 
seems a trivial patch.

Is it enough to edit the SVG files or do I also have to include the PNGs (i.e. 
are the PNGs autogenerated?) and finally, do I need to make copies of the PNGs 
in the lilypond-extras dir? I get confused with this part and images.

Thanks
