'ly2dvi -P' that you use, will give you a Postscript file with bitmapped fonts. I think you want to use 'ly2dvi -p', which will give you PDF and Postscript files with vector fonts (Type1 fonts). This should be clear from the documentation in the reference manual. Also, in the latest development versions, the default has been changed to always produce PDF files with Type1 fonts.

Howdy, y'all!
I seem to be having a problem getting truly high-resolution output from my lilypond installation. Specifically, when I open the .ps file in Adobe Illustrator, the fonts (e.g., dynamics) appear jagged at high magnification.
I thought it might be because the Type 1 fonts were not included in the standard Fink install, but I have downloaded some .pfa fonts (from instructions found on the web for an earlier version of Lilypond) and installed them where I think they should be (/sw/share/lilypond/1.9.2/fonts/type1/), and that didn't seem to improve the output.
If anyone can assist, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Kieren.
p.s. here's verbose output of a test run, if it helps:
