Using scores authored, or converted to, Lilypond syntax should allow for better behavior of longer scores within a L aT eX document. The piece below is inadvisably long and will likely demonstrate this behavior, though it is shorter than a page. Or worse, the score might be longer than a single page, for which there is no solution. For L aT eX output, a longer score can lead to very poor page breaks, and large vertical gaps, especially in a preceding page. I've not used Lilypond myself, but I have used LaTeX which is a similar program for compiling text documents from source files. Lilypond is easily the most powerful free/libre engraver, and arguably even more powerful than the commercial heavyweights Sibelius and Finale, mostly because it is set up as a Turing-complete programming language: it can be extended for any notation task whatsoever. Of course, you might decide you prefer one program's set of fonts. The app can export sheet music to PDF, MusicXML and LilyPond formats.

This is a free and open source music notation software. This procedure will work best for very short scores, since it is treated as an indivisible image. MuseScore and Lilypond both use vector fonts to produce music, not image bitmaps, so there will be no difference in 'picture quality'. MuseScore Linux also has a very active development team who are constantly working on new features and improvements. So apparently the bug is fixed for next version. For HTML output the utilities pdfcrop and pdf2svg will produce an SVG image that will work well. I opened your mscz file with the current trunk for the upcoming 0.9.6, and I got a working lilypond file (attached).
#Musescore to lilypond pdf
The PDF version will be incorporated into the PDF output when the L aT eX output is compiled, presuming the file is placed in the right location relative to the main T eX file. Starting with a PDF that is “born digital” such as output from a scorewriter like Finale, it is possible to treat the score simply as we would any other image. We plan to support various output options and conversions, but at this writing support is rudimentary, but evolving.
A score may be represented in several formats: PDF output from a scorewriter (not a scan of printed sheet music), an XML file in the MusicXML format, online within MuseScore, or in Lilypond syntax.
