The default spacing in LilyPond has been carefully designed by the implementors to provide a nice layout. If you want a more spacious layout, maybe you should increase the staff size one or two steps. If a particular line of music gets too compressed, it may help to add a manual line break, \break. If you really want to change the default spacings, take a look at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Horizontal-spacing.html#Horizontal-spacing but I'd rather recommend not to fiddle too much with these properties.

Hi,
(I'm using Lilypond 2.4.2)
Can anyone help me with a command to set the minimum size of measure in the layout? When I place lyrics under the notes I get pretty much what I want, but if I just have notes the final score is too much compressed for my taste (kids are going to read it).
