Hi Kieren,

Anyway… I've added a

   \bookpart {
     \paper { oddHeaderMarkup = ##f }
     \markup \null
   }

before the \bookpart containing the score, and now the margins are as I would 
have hoped, as are the page numbers (because my titling is based on 
bookpart-page-number).

If the task really is to treat 1 as a left page, I don't see an option other than tweaking the page number output routine. Unfortunately, all of this seems to be quite hard-coded, so I did:

\version "2.21"

#(define number-format-original number-format)
#(set! number-format (lambda (number-type num . custom-format)
  (if
   (equal? number-type 'arabic-shifted)
   (fancy-format #f "~d" (1- num))
   (number-format-original number-type num custom-format))))

\paper {
  page-number-type = #'arabic-shifted
  first-page-number = 2
  print-first-page-number = ##t
}

\new Staff {
  \repeat unfold 400 c'2
}

which has the dubious benefit of being both brutal _and_ ugly.

Lukas
