I have an e-book. I will try to prepare some of my lilypond scores to 
print on a6 paper, a size that comes close to the screen of my e-reader. I 
think Lilypond's PDF scores can look fine on my e-reader, if I prepare my 
lilypond source especially for this purpose. It's not dynamic formatting 
on the device like epub (or html, which is basically the same) does with 
text, but it can done with what we have now.
