I don't understand, because in the past it was possible to have several scores, each one with its own size. All the projects i work for, for several countries, require that. The basic idea, is to make all scores ends at half-page-boundaries, or page-boundaries. If offers many advantages. When one score ends on the beginning of a page (it is common), you slightly reduce its size to make it ends at the end of the previous page. Or increase it to finish at the half, or end of the current page. As each score content is different from the others, it must have its own size to end at a half-page-boundary. As you modify the sizes only slightly, the scores do not look really different in size. This trick is well-known for optimizing the page layout of score-books. You find it in both ancient (more than one century) and modern score-books. Therefore, it is far not surprising to find this feature in lilypond. This leads to the next advantages: in a pdf with several hundreds of scores, you can save many pages with this. It means greatly reducing the printing costs, and contributing to save trees. It is important when working for non-profit organizations with few money, as it is the cases. Next advantages, for people using it (either pdf or printed), it is also more practical, both to have fewer pages for the entire book, and that the scores ends on page-boundaries, of half-page-boundaries. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/layout-set-staff-size-strange-look%3A-bug-or-feature--tp14597530p14612554.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - Bugs mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
