It would much clearer if you included a short example of
what you tried.

If I understand you correctly, you have for example one
stave with music for the full score and you want it
accompanied by a number of empty staves, right?

Then, the easiest I can think of is so include an invisible
copy of the same music also in the other staves, something
like:

melody = {c d e f }

\score{
 \new StaffGroup <<
   \new Staff \melody
   \new Staff {\hideNotes \melody }
   \new Staff {\hideNotes \melody }
 >>
}

Hello.

How can I force the printing of the staff even if it is empty,
i.e. sort of the opposite of "\RemoveEmptyStaffContext".

By default, in a StaffGroup, for staves without music (not even
multi-measures rests), lilypond shows, on the first system, the
clef and time and key signatures but without printing the staff
lines; then for subsequent systems nothing is printed.

I'd rather not insert skip notes, since this file is to serve as
a template and the length and time signature of the actual music
will each time be different; I just want the empty staves to follow
(in length) the non-empty ones.

[I hope that was clear...]

Version 2.6.3 (on Debian).

Thanks,
Gilles
