Hmm...
With those paper settings, I get
4.84 top-margin
Since those measurements are in staff-spaces, the conversion to
millimeters is as follows:
4.84 * 5 * 25.4 / 72.27 = 8.5mm = 0.85cm

Thanks for pointing out the bug in the Notation Reference.
But I can't use that exact description, because if you do not *have* a
title, head-separation will behave differently. In this case, it
appears to be the distance between the top-margin and the spot where a
title *would* appear if it existed.
However, I think I will hold off on modifying the description, because
there some large spacing changes (from Joe) will be committed soon,
and I'm not sure if "head-separation" will be affected or not.
Thanks,
Patrick
