dvipdfm is not supported, because it can't handle important postscript
specials (read: no slurs and beams in LilyPond output). From the
manual:
dvipdfm(1) dvipdfm(1)
NAME
dvipdfm - Produce PDF files directly from DVI files
The program dvipdfm recognizes several commonly used \special
commands, which are extensions to the DVI format.

A PostScript engine (ghostview, aka gs) and a viewer (gsview32) are
supplied with the windows installation. Please rerun setup.exe and
install these packages.
On GNU/Linux, there's a utility called ps2pdf for producing pdf files.
Procducing PDF on windows is not yet supported.
Greetings,
Jan.
