How do I manually set the height and width of the paper I'm printing/

What version? In 2.4 those go in the \paper block.
You're right... I thought that \paper was simply renamed to \layout,
but I
guess it's more complicated than that. Anyway, I tried this:
\paper {
hsize = 4.4\in
vsize = 4.4\in
}
and the paper size (as displayed by Adobe Acrobat Reader 6.0 on Mac OS
X) is still 8.26 x 11.69 in, but the formatting is messed up. The
staves are
shifted to the left about 2 (maybe 2.2?) inches—there's a big gap at
the right
side, and the lines are cut off at the left. Also, only 2–3 staves
are printed
on each page, compared to 4–6 previously.
Any ideas what's going on, and how I can set a custom paper size?
(Are there
other variables that need to be set in \paper?)
