you can overrule (all paper) variables in the \paper block of your \score.
for spacing, you can fiddle with (from init/paperxx.ly)
basicspace = 8.\pt;
arithmetic_basicspace = 2.;
arithmetic_multiplier = 6.\pt;
for changing page sizes (paper.ly)
linewidth = \staffheight/20.0 * \linewidth20;
textheight = \staffheight/20.0 * \textheight20;
(ugh).
i'm not sure, though, what a ly2dvi will do with these when
papersize=a4 (paperxx.ly) is also set.
