You shouldn't be doing that, but you should let LilyPond do the job for
you (this is why you wrote to the LilyPond mailing list, isn't it?).
There are two basic steps to creating an image file for inclusion in
word processors:
1)Make LilyPond output the bare music with something like
\layout { \context { \Staff \omit StaffSymbol \omit
Clef \omit TimeSignature \omit KeySignature }}
(maybe I've forgotten stuff here...)
2)Make LilyPond output a cropped image. You can do that in various
ways:
add \include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly"to your input file.Or use the
-dpreview option on the command line.

PS:All of this is assuming that you want to include symbols in a *word
processor*. If using LaTeX is an option you can use the packages
lilyglyphs and lyluatex for better results and workflows.
