I would second/ third a request to get the SVG output fixed. I'm trying to create SVG output at the moment. I've used all the help I could find in the manual and in previous threads, and still some symbols (in this case the TextScript font and normal text in a DynamicScript) are showing in the wrong font.
I'm using Inkscape under OS X with Lilypond 2.10.20. I'm particularly confused why the TextScript font isn't right. I've tried setting the pango-font-tree manually, but that doesn't make any difference. FontBook is seeing the fonts I've specified, so it should "just work", right?
Thanks for any tips.
Vivian.

For what it's worth, here's my screenshot of the same snippet
(Linux64). It's not perfect, but not so ugly though.
Honestly, I don't think LilyPond developers *can* fix it (maybe
GhostScript guys could, but I think operating systems differences make
exact portability rather impossible); fixing the SVG output, however,
would be great IMHO (I've seen it's buggy, but I haven't tried
personally).
By the way, on linux, some viewers
such as evince allow to view the
.ps file (actually, it converts it internally to PDF on the fly, and
then applies a nice anti-aliasing filter). If you want to have a more
accurate preview, this could be worth considering... (I don't know if
there's any equivalent on windows)
