Still some vertical spacing/fitting problems

2010-01-14 Thread Nick Payne
I have no vertical spacing overrides in the attached score, other than setting top-margin and bottom-margin, but when I build it with 2.13.10, the bottom stave on the first page almost completely vanishes off the bottom of the page. Something as simple as changing ragged-last to ##f is enough t

You should also look at Section "3.3.4 Modifying context properties" which mentions the fontSize property which is a so-called context property and affects the font size of everything that's printed within the current so- called context (such as the Lyrics context used to typeset your lyrics).
