I have noticed the way Adobe Reader renders lines, etc., somewhat variably, 
but I've always assumed it was Reader, not LilyPond.  I've attached an 
example from a screenshot of 2 different lines of score, magnified in 
PhotoShop.  See the way the bar lines are different thicknesses, cross the 
staves differently, and even the stave spacing varies?

Doesn't concern me at all, but it does happen.
