I see this problem as well. The log message is: warning: compressing over-full page by 31.9 staff-spaces warning: page 5 has been compressed
This generates one system at the top of page 5 with signs of compression in the lowest staff, then leaves a huge empty space, then a highly compressed system at the bottom of the page. I have tried setting "ragged-last-bottom = ##f" and "max-systems-per-page = 2" to no effect (lilypond is only writing 2 systems to the page after all). As this only happens on page 5 of an 11-page score, a short example is impossible (for me at any rate). Pages 1-4 and 6-11 are fine. The lilypond 12.14.0 file was generated by Rosegarden 15.12 on Linux Mint 18. Compression is less if "set-global-staff-size 18" is reduced to 13. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks for your help. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/warning-compressing-over-full-page-by-12-4-staff-spaces-tp168716p199871.html Sent from the Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
