OK, can I do something to scale up the fonts and other symbols to get 
larger sized music that looks good? You guys got the fonts up to 26pt. 
How did you do it?

I eventually want non-technical people to be able to use Lilypond to 
generate large-print music and Braille from the text input. Using dvips 
to scale the music is clumsy at best.
