Fixed (absolute) line spacing in markup column

I need to define a multi-line tagline for our Mutopia Project scores.  The scores can have user-defined values for global staff size, but the tagline needs to be a fixed-fontsize markup block that doesn't scale with staff size. One can set an absolute fontsize for markup, but I don't know of a

RE: grace notes and ledger lines

I checked the 8va and 8vb sections in "Music Notation" by Gardner Read, and 8va is only to be used above the treble clef and 8vb below the bass, and no woodwinds use the 8vb sign. He's obviously only one authority, but he's a good one. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5

Hi. In a large choral score I'd like to write a ritardando that appears only in the top of the entire system (together with \tempo markings) - without having to define the ritardando in the topmost staff. The voices in the top staffgroup have no music (just a long series of rests) where the ritarda
