Re: Margins

Hi Jay,

Did you explicitly set the spacing variables?
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/flexible-vertical-spacing-_005cpaper-variables#list-of-flexible-vertical-spacing-_005cpaper-variables

In particular, you probably want to adjust top-system-spacing [= "the distance 
from the top of the printable area (i.e. the bottom of the top margin) to the 
first system on a page, when there is no (title or top-level) markup between 
the two].

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
