files when included in *TeX documents
https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4251

I don't like all the rather hefty size tradeoffs and "pdfsizeopt does not  
work on this, or does not work on that".  The problem appears to be that we  
include subsetted fonts hundreds of times here, right?

What happens if we just run the whole original resulting PDF file once  
again through ps2pdf (in spite of its name, this can also take PDF as its  
input)?  Does that do anything with regard to the font problem?

Alternatively, we might not use PDFTeX for creating our docs but rather  
normal LaTeX, and do a final ps2pdf run.  That should likely make it easier  
for Ghostscript to unify fonts from the separate images.
