Comment #81 on issue 2658 by [email protected]: wrong stem rendering
(inconsistent thickness)
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2658
Stems are 0.65 pt wide by default, drawn with pen leaving a 0.4-pt-wide
line ('blot-diameter'). The track of the pen as it draws down one side of
the stem is only 0.15 pt from its track up the other side.
Stems, bar-lines, and breathing signs use 'blot-diameter', while beams and
flags reference it (presumably to meet their stems properly).
We could have the option -dsimple-stems
to make very narrow rectangles---width less than twice the
blot-diameter---drawn as one stroke with an appropriately broad pen. Then
we don't double the file size.
Frescobaldi could -dsimple-stems by default; other users could be advised :
"LilyPond draws stems as narrow rectangles. If these look non-uniform in
your PDF viewer, you might change settings in the viewer (for example
de-selecting EnhanceThinLines in Adobe Reader) or use the option
-dsimple-stems to ask LilyPond to produce simple lines."
