Hi all
Thanks for your replies - they all pointed me in the right direction.
After a nice hot shower I realised part of my issue was the setting of
ragged-bottom = ##t in the \paper block of the \book.
What I didn't realise then (but have worked out now :-) ) is that I can put a
\paper block into each \bookpart and then control the system-system spacing
basic-distance there... And it works.
Thanks again
Adrian
