Sounds like a job for an image filter.
ps2pnm music.ps
gimp -i -b '
(let* ((image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
"music001.pnm" "music001.pnm")))
(drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image))))
(plug-in-blur RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable)
(gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable "music001.pnm"
"music001.pnm")
(gimp-image-delete image))' '(gimp-quit 0)'
Replace "plug-in-blur" with whatever effect you'd prefer. :)

minute variations ('imperfections') in print add a warmth ... and
it's this
warmth that I feel is most lacking in lilypond output.
Wouldn't it be fairly easy add an 'soft/irregular edge' command to the
typesetting system?
Best,

PS I don't request this as a feature that I want personally so much
as I think
it would be one that could greatly enrich the (already superb) feel
of lilypond
output.
