Well, the dvi files look ok.  When I try lilypond -V
piano-dyanamics.ly I get the following (relevant excerpt only):

mktexpk: Can't guess mode for 8000 dpi devices.
mktexpk: Use a config file, or update me.
kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.
dvips: Font feta20 at 8000 not found; scaling 600 instead.
dvips: Such scaling will generate extremely poor output.
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 8000 --mag 1+0/8000 --dpi 8000 
feta-din14
mktexpk: Mismatched mode ljfour and resolution 8000; ignoring mode.
mktexpk: Can't guess mode for 8000 dpi devices.
mktexpk: Use a config file, or update me.
dvips: Font feta-din14 not found,  using cmr10 instead.
dvips: Design size mismatch in font feta-din14
dvips: Checksum mismatch in font feta-din14
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 8000 --mag 1+0/8000 --dpi 8000 
feta-braces50
mktexpk: Mismatched mode ljfour and resolution 8000; ignoring mode.
mktexpk: Can't guess mode for 8000 dpi devices.

dvips: Font feta-braces50 not found,  using cmr10 instead.

dvips: Checksum mismatch in font feta-braces50


What do you suggest I do now?
