Hi,
Adobe Illustrator fails to find LilyPond-specific fonts (like New Century Schoolbook and the cheese fonts) on import of LilyPond-generated pdf, eps and ps.
Threads like this one between Kieren and Matt and others back in 2006 ...
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2006-02/msg00400.html... give ps2ps as the best answer to "clean" or, perhaps, "groom" Lily's output for import into Illustrator.
Is ps2ps still the best option for prepping Lily output for import into Illustrator? Or has a better strategy surfaced in the last couple of months?
(I thought that the bit here ...
lilypond -dbackend=eps -dno-gs-load-fonts -dinclude-eps-fonts myfile.ly
... might've produced clean eps output for import into Illustrator; but, alas, Illustrator grumbles about even this type of output.)
Best suggestion on getting the middle page of a multipage Lily score into Illustrator cleanly? 2.11.50 under OS X, btw.
