Sorry, I should better read to the end before replying. However,
writing
\paper { paper-width=110\mm }
\score { { c4 c4 c4 c4 } }
and using
lilypond -dresolution=1200 --png
I get an image with 5197 pixels width, which is to a pixel exactly what
was demanded. So perhaps you need to check what throws a spanner in
your works, starting from a simple paper definition.
