Greetings, Rutger:
Rather than query the font size, I use a simple calculation on the global
staff size:
In the individual files,
globalSize = 18 % or 20 or 15, or what-you-will
In the file of included definitions (thus always accessible):
mgnStf = #(/ 20 globalSize)
Then the eps file is dealt with as needed:
\epsfile #Y #(* 1 mgnStf) % replacing "1" with the number of staff-spaces
you'd like at size 20
#"your eps file.eps"
===BONUS===
The mgnStf concept is also handy for text positioning within a markup:
\translate #(cons 0 (* mgnStf -3)) % for instance
Not as elegant as an equivalent to "\abs-fontsize", but maybe it'll get you
by...
