Personally I certainly much prefer vector formats, as these scale much better
in documents, are more editable if customisation is required, and they can

needed.
My main usage case is including Lilypond snippets in large

Thank you for asking.

Hi,

Over the past year and a half, LilyPond has gained a new output
backend based on the Cairo graphics library. Whi
