Replying to my own query here with the solution.
I was sent, off-list, a couple of solutions:
\paper { ...
oddHeaderMarkup = \markup \fill-line { "" "11" }
}
\paper {
print-first-page-number = ##t
first-page-number = 2 % or whatever number you need
}
The second one is working fine. The first one likely would, too, but I had an
alignment issue with the page number of a header element which turned out to be
due to my use of '\vspace' in the header in question. I removed the '\vspace'
and specified a top margin and all is well.
Thanks for the help!
