How do I remove it such that each page begins at same top-left corner?

Hi, Hugh,
there are a few settings mentioned in the paper layout which might help
you, but there's quite a difference between 2.12.x and 2.13.y.
Most notably are, of course, top-margin and left-margin, as well as
indent, then come head-separation, page-top-spacing, top-title-spacing,
top-system-spacing... Have a look at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Page-formatting#Page-formatting
and
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/page-formatting#page-formatting
respectively.
Anyway, I assume if you really want the page tightly fitted around the
glyphs, you might be in trouble, since some glyphs have an extent not
matching the actual "drawn" region.
If you're not afraid of using the command line, if you're on Linux
(might work on Windows also, but I have no clue if you can get all the
required tools there), and if the settings explained in the Notation
Reference don't help, I can dig out a small script which really gives a
tight crop. It's completely unaware of LilyPond, though, and I assume
it only works for single pages, so you might have to use pdftk,
jpdftweak or similar to burst the LilyPond output into single page PDFs,
crop them and reassemble them again. Oh, and crops all borders, not
just top and left, and I don't think there's an easy way to modify this.
Cheers,
Alexander
