Hi Trevor,

A while back someone had a similar question I think, something like a wish
for:

%%%
\paper {
  systems-per-page = #5
  systems-on-firstpage = #4
  %{ -- this is if the last page would not be fully filled
  systems-on-lastpage = #3
  ragged-last-bottom = ##t
  %}
}
%%%

I believe David's bars-per-line-systems-per-page-engraver2.ly can help you,
if I understand correctly.
I think it's what you are after...

Does this help?
