This is a known problem with some of the 1.6.x releases and has been solved in the latest stable version, 1.6.8. You can fix your current installation by downloading the Type1 font files for 1.6.8 (assuming you have root access):
mkdir /tmp/newfonts cd /tmp/newfonts/ wget -l 1 -nd -r -A pfa,map http://lilypond.org/stable/mf/out/ mv *.pfa $LILYPONDSHARE/fonts/type1/ mv *.map $LILYPONDSHARE/dvips
where $LILYPONDSHARE is /usr/share/lilypond/1.6.6/ or wherever the files are installed on your system.

I'm running Lilypond 1.6.6, installed from rpm, on a Red Hat 8.0 system. (Two of them, actually, and they're both doing the same thing). When I run xdvi on the dvi output, it looks fine, but the .ps and .pdf are bad.
I have: * Uninstalled and reinstalled the package. (There seems to be a bug in the uninstall script, BTW. I have to create a bogus directory and fonts.dir file to get it to run.) * Verified that the .pfa files are where they belong, and that they are the 1.6.6 versions (or at least that rpm installed them in a directory labelled 1.6.6). * Made sure that my config.ps files say "p +psfonts.map"
When I follow this sequence:
"Run the command: tex testfont Fill in: Name of font to test = feta20 * \table * \bye
Look at the file using xdvi: xdvi testfont you should see a table with different musical symbols.
Run dvips -Ppdf -G0 -ulilypond.map testfont
Look at the Postscript file using gv (ghostview) gv testfont.ps (or ghostview testfont.ps) you should see the same result.
Try to convert the file to PDF: ps2pdf testfont.ps
Look at the PDF file: acroread testfont.pdf Again the document should look the same."
It works (generating a ton of fonts in the meantime). But when I try to run the actual file (I'm using the wtk1-fugue2.ly sample file), I still get garbage.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Geoff
