Tar of some examples and the source PDF

I use Okular to read scores a lot, but have noticed a couple of problems which
cause misreadings.

1) Note heads have ambiguous placements as shown in '100 percent.png' and 'step
up.png'. If they aren't either on the line or in the middle of two lines, they
are very confusing to read.

2) When zoomed out, the lines have uneven distances, making some patterns hard
to read. Maybe this could be sorted with dithering?

This seems to be a problem in PDFs exported from multiple notation programs.
Attached is a MuseScore example. Google document viewer seems to handle scores
better but not perfectly.
