.tar.gz of some KolourPaint-scaled .pngs for comparison

The new screenshots do look different, but the problems are still there to
varying extents.

I can't try out other back-ends or make detailed examples just yet as I don't
have a properly functional desktop system installed right now, but will try to
do that soon.

‘100 percent_fixed.png’ is no longer ambiguous, but all the notes look a little
bit too high up on the staff. Something that could be adjusted to, but it's
still not quite right.

‘line spacing_fixed.png’ has much better spacing, but the first ledger line
looks very odd due to the double thickness.

In ‘step up_fixed.png’, the placement has become even more ambiguous — 3 out of
5 notes would now be misread due to being shown a step higher.

I've screenshotted the file as displayed at 400% zoom, and used KolourPaint to
smooth scale it to the sizes in the examples. This scaling may be inaccurate as
I'm on an older version of Okular. This type of scaling results in more
readable scores, but then the dithered lines look very odd.

Could I suggest marking this as unresolved? I'll try to get some proper
examples posted soon.
