Yup: this is it precisely. So your trick this morning with \hspace{-3mm} definitely did work for me. However, now knowing that I can set --left-padding=0, the need for the negative \hspace trick goes away.
Here's the same sample inline example I was rendering before, with --left-padding=0 passed on the commandline to lilypond-book; the attached .png shows that the output is exactly as it should be: %%% BEGIN %%% Note that for each $\frac{1}{2^n}$ with $n \in \mathbb{Z}$ there exists some gly Where $n = 4$ we see that $g$ equals the sixteenth note \begin[staffsize=12]{li { \override Staff.StaffSymbol #'stencil = ##f \override Staff.Clef #'stencil = ##f \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f c'16 } \end{lilypond} written here under zero-prolation. %%% END %%% Thanks, Mats!
