Thank you for your suggestions!

Here below is the code.

With system-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #22 I have  2 pages and one 
system in the 3rd.
With system-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #21 I have less than 2 full pages
How can I have 2 complete pages?! What do I do wrong?

Moreover Frescobaldi signals to me #(set-global-staff-size 16) with the red 
color. Why is that? The code renders without errore, but that color seems to 
point me to some misuse. Is it true?

Thank you again!!!
