Hello Richard,
Your bow-pressure graphic looks great, and I hope your question about
horizontal proportions can be answered soon.
Another feature of your illustration is relevant to my wish list: the
downward-pointing brackets with 9" in the middle. I've been trying to
find a way to do this for some time. Could you forward the code for
this feature? Perhaps it is just something basic that I've missed.
I believe you misunderstood. The picture provided was an external
reference, not LilyPond output. (It's easy to spot because the treble
clef is leaning as if it would fall to the right. Most non-LilyPond
fonts have this flaw.) The point of the attached image was to provide a
visual example of the desired feature, not that such feature is
implemented in LilyPond yet.

What you are looking for, however, can be done with horizontal/analysis
brackets:
%%%%
\version "2.25.13"
\new Voice
\with { \consists Horizontal_bracket_engraver }
{
b'4
-\tweak layer 0
-\tweak direction #UP
-\tweak bracket-flare #'(0 . 0)
-\tweak HorizontalBracketText.Y-offset -0.5
-\tweak HorizontalBracketText.text
\markup \whiteout \pad-around #0.5 "9\""
-\startGroup 4 2\stopGroup
}
%%%%
