I still don't understand why you don't use a simple latex or postcript
command.

However, you are remarkably focussed to get this to work, so here are
the gory details about page layout.  You have three options.

1. LilyPond <= v2.2.x does not do page layout, it lets [La]TeX handle
   the problem.  When you run

   lilypond --keep foo.ly

  the lilypond.py script creates the latex wraper
  lilypond.dir/foo.latex.  That's about the only place you can do page
  layout.

2. Write the latex wrapper yourself and use lilypond-book.

3. Track/wait for/join lilypond development.  LilyPond 2.3 has page
   layout.  Customisation of margins, headers and footers are not yet
   implemented.
