(1) how can I get a certain field to break across two (or more) lines?

example: 

\version "2.18.0"

\header {

  copyright = "Copyright © 2003 by composer-name. For all countries. All rights reserved. "

}

Perhaps you’d also like to try

\version "2.19.3"

\paper { #(set-paper-size "a6") }

\header {

copyright = \markup \center-column {

\wordwrap-lines { rather long text which is supposed

to be broken into lines where necessary;

note that wordwrap-lines is required,

else the paragraph will be left-bound in itself

and center-aligned to other elements

in "\center-column {}" }

\char ##x00a9

\wordwrap { rather long text which is supposed

to be broken into lines where necessary;

here, wordwrap results in a left-bound paragraph }

}

}

\markup \null
