I have also found that increasing the height of the text at the bottom 
of the first page will increase the page count.  My piece "Recursion" 
was seven pages, but when I reformatted its Creative Commons license to 
be a couple lines longer, the score went to eight pages.  I fiddled with 
it for quite a while, but was completely unable to get it back to seven 
pages and still be sensibly laid out.

You can get the old score & Lilypond source at:

I'll be posting the new version in a few days, as part of my rollout of 
updating my license from Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 to 3.0.
