This is supposed to be a reply to the posting about UTF-8 encoding 
and/or lilypond problems. Unfortunately I deleted the original thread.

I want to reply to the message that had a test.zip attached including a 
problematic(?) test.ly tiny example and a bad(?) test.pdf file.

I am running Fedora 18 and use lilypond 2.16.2

I can confirm:
1. The test.pdf in the zip is bad, and cannot be loaded in (for example) evince
2. If I check in my terminal:
 	file test.ly
    This is returned:
 	test.ly: UTF-8 Unicode text
    look fine to me.

But:

if I do:
 	lilypond test.ly
I am getting a test.pdf that is loaded and displayed just fine in Evince.
Starting from the terminal I do see some strange messages:

Entity: line 10: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
Bytes: 0xE0 0x20 0xC9 0x6C
format='application/pdf'><dc:title><rdf:Alt><rdf:li xml:lang='x-default'>Lettre
                                                                                ^
I decided to try something else (maybe this works on your system too?)
 	lilypond --ps test.ly
 	ps2pdf test.ps test.pdf
 	ps2pdf12 test.ps test12.pdf
 	ps2pdf13 test.ps test13.pdf
 	ps2pdf14 test.ps test14.pdf

The files test.pdf and test14.pdf are displayed correctly, but produce the 
error messages in my terminal

The files test12.pdf and test13.pdf are displayed WITHOUT these error 
messages. This looks like a ghostscript problem. Is this the issue that is 
fixed in the new upstream versions?

Maybe this adds some info to the discussion.
Sorry for leaving the original thread. Please edit the Subject: field when 
replying, to get this back in the original thread.
