I can't speak for the future content of http://lilypond.org/~graham/Text-input.html, but I will be working on the next version of the essay (once the directory structure for images in Documentation/ stabilizes), and it should not require any bit-mapped text. Even in cases such as http://lilypond.org/web/images/lily14-sarabande-correct.png, the corrections could be highlighted visually without requiring that descriptions occur in the image.
