Re: ec-fonts-mftraced installed properly

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you don't specify that .map file and use this package, then
you will get bitmapped fonts, which doesn't really do any harm
as long as you print the scores on paper or view the Postscript
file without zooming in too much. However, if you view a PDF file
with bitmapped fonts on the screen, it will usually look terribly
fuzzy, which is why the vectorized fonts (Type1 fonts) in
ec-fonts-mftraced are used by default.

Maybe the information in 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-05/msg00207.html
can help you get further.
