This is what my output looks like:
calvin:~/VVE/Arcadelt$ dvips  -ta4 -Ppdf -G0 -u +lilypond.map 
-oFranc_berger.ps Franc_berger.dvi
This is dvips(k) 5.86 Copyright 1999 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)

<feta-nummer7.pfa><cmr7.pfb><cmcsc10.pfb><cmbx12.pfb><cmbx10.pfb>[1] [2]

It looks like it finds the pfa files alright.

It seems to find all feta files (pfa and tfm) files. Could it be a problem of 
the pdf viewer? When I look at a pdf file generated with the -u option I get 
the following font information from acroread (5.0 on Linux):

Orignal Font                            Type            Encoding        Used

CMR10                                   Type1   Built-in

In this case the note heads have all disappeared.

When I look at the pdf file generated without the -u option I get the 
following font information from acroread:

The notes look ok at normal scale, but when scaled to 1200% they appear as 
blocks.
