This is something can happen with so-called "portable" document formats.

SVG made directly from lilypond should work well, but you say the goal
is to import an existing document not made by you.

In my limited experience, scalable/vector are great when you both
produce and consume them, but when everything else fails at sharing
with others, high-res PNGs are always compatible and final prints are
good quality anyway, so it does not matter if it was scalable in some
stage of the process. Unless you want a very enlarged detail of a tiny
part of a score.
