Starting with this version, the official binaries support the experimental Cairo backend. Please give it a try with the command line option -dbackend=cairo and see if it works for you. In case of problems, please report back to us so it can be worked on.
These are really good news! SVG images are required for OOoLilyPond (LilyPond extension for LibreOffice) to insert musical snippets into office documents without quality loss. At the moment, this is only possible by either using the SVG backend (drawback: no lilypond-book-preamble) or by calling an additional program to convert PDF to SVG. The new cairo backend could be the ultimate solution to all that. Thanks a million to everyone who has worked on that feature! Cheers, Klaus
