My positioning is similar for single scores, where I have: version language includes header . miditempo (if used just for proofreading) . global staff size . paper . default layout parts (global, SATB, lyrics) score which keeps the "tunables" together. But I often need multiple scores (a cappella choral, a piano reduction, or vocal on two and four staves) from the same parts. For those, I put each score in a \book, prefixed with its individual global staff size (and there may be specific layout options and extra headers added to the end of each type of score). Cheers, David.
