Hi Carl,

The two big issues I saw were font embedding and clipping the bounding box. It
seems like we ought to be able to adjust both of those in the svg output.
Would it be possible to modify the effects of lilypond-book-preamble.ly on .svg
files?
LilyPond does not embed fonts in svg output. Is this possible in
general, like in pdf files?
lilypond-book-preamble.ly only works with the eps backend, not with the
svg one.
AFAIK, there have been questions and discussions on the list about both
of those issues, but no solutions available yet.
It seems to me that fixing lilypond svg output to match what we want would be a
better approach long-term than trying to integrate the call of a pdf->svg
converter.
Nevertheless, calling the converter appears to be an immediate workaround.
100% agreed. :)
Another solution would be a working pdf import for LibreOffice. But that
seems to be still a long way to go as well.
Cheers,
Klaus
