Sorry for the confusion. What I really mean is a simple question: I want page 1/2 size 16 and page 2/2 size 18 because its the last page and has fewer notes.
Note: Not really "I" but "he" or "someone". For me aestethics would prevent such a thing, but maybe there really is a case where this is needed to express the music.
