very curious. So your example printed better than mine the footnote is
    very close to the edge and the top is very far down.
So I opened librewriter cut the margins to .5 and filled the top and two lines of text at the bottom and there is no loss at the bottom and no
    extra space at the top.
    So this is a problem that is connected to the program more than the
printer. The github links didn't inform me much as I am not that kind of tech person (as if you couldn't tell) and I have never used github
    and don't have an account.

    I think I'm asking "is there a way to manually set the margins in
    lilypond?"

I think the issue is a Frescobaldi issue, not a LilyPond issue, as the
links Federico shared point out.

Instead of printing from Frescobaldi, try opening up the saved pdf
file that is created by LilyPond and stored by Frescobaldi in the
working directory.  Open the pdf in some pdf viewer (evince is a Free
pdf viewer) and try printing from the viewer.  See if you still have
the problem.

HTH,

Carl
