All,
Sometimes Lilypond changes how it does its "Fitting music on ..."
calculations when it decides what can fit on a page and what cannot. In
this case, after four pages on which the "fitting" process puts two
systems per page, the subsequent pages *all* have only one system per
page--even though there is no change in number of staves -- still seven
(SATB plus organ). The links below to the Lilypond code and resulting
PDF show what I mean. Now, I know I can fiddle with the margins and
likely get Lilypond to fit two systems per page throughout, but this
just seems so odd. Why can two seven-stave systems work for four pages
but not for all remaining pages?

Verbose logging provides no guidance as, well, there's technically been
no error. In order to get two systems per page through out, I have to
set-global-staff-size to 14 and decrease all margins thus:
top-margin = 1.0\in
bottom-margin = .75\in
right-margin = 1.0\in
left-margin = 1.0\in
Which is, well, odd. To me at least.
Regards,
Guy
