scm/music-functions.scm contains

(define general-grace-settings
  `((Voice Stem font-size -3)
    (Voice Flag font-size -3)
    (Voice NoteHead font-size -3)
    (Voice TabNoteHead font-size -4)
    (Voice Dots font-size -3)
    (Voice Stem length-fraction 0.8)
    (Voice Stem no-stem-extend #t)
    (Voice Beam beam-thickness 0.384)
    (Voice Beam length-fraction 0.8)
    (Voice Accidental font-size -4)
    (Voice AccidentalCautionary font-size -4)
    (Voice Script font-size -3)
    (Voice Fingering font-size -8)
    (Voice StringNumber font-size -8)))

If some of those settings are useless/illegible, we'd need to adjust
them generally.
