see
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/paper-size-and-automatic-scaling#setting-the-paper-size:
"When the set-paper-size function is used, it must be placed before any
other functions
used within the same \paper block."

otherwise they (the functions you invoked) are overwritten.
