Re: margins - headers - footers

[Mats Bengtsson]

Take a look at the files input/test/ly2dvi-testpage.ly and
input/test/fill-a4.ly. To set the headers and footers, set
the header variables 'head' and 'footer'. Note, though that
the footer is overriden by the 'copyright' variable on the 
first page and by the 'tagline' variable on the last page.

To increase the spacing, the simplest trick is probably to 
set any of the unused fields (subtitle or piece) to an empty
string or even to "\\vfill".
