Yes it is. I took the .svg file in your example,
converted it to
postscript, changed a bit the code, and here you are:

How exactly do you convert a .svg file into
postscript? It seems a very useful general
technique to get arcane symbols into LP scores.
Oh, you'll be disappointed: I just use Inkscape and save the file as .ps :-)
Philip, if you're ok with the code
If the old bass clef symbol is available in some font, couldn't you just
do this:
\version 2.10.0
myClefSymbol = \markup{
\override #'(font-name . Times New Roman ) \huge A
}
\score{
\relative c'{
\override Staff.Clef #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\override Staff.Clef #'text
Well done, Valentin!
Another Inkscape convert (Trevor D.)!
Lilypond and Inkscape are my two favorite open source applications.
(In that order, of course ;-)

The Feta font has been made in METAFONT.
See the .mf-files in the source.

In case you do not know what I am talking about, here

a sample I found on the Internet.
(Do I annoy you with all these questions
I looked at this last year some time. Unless something changed and I
missed it, the answer is, No. It would be nice to have, but I don't
have the graphic designer skills to produce a good-looking glyph.

Hi,
By the way...what are these skills precisely?
What are the steps to produce a glyph from beginning to usable numeric file?
Is the first step a hand drafted sketch? At which dimensionnal scale ?
etc...
Is there a numerisation of the ilage afterwards? Or the image must be
encoded pixel by
