Kieren- perhaps this recommendation did not work because there is only one system per page? At any rate it didn't affect anything no matter where I placed the spacing stuff. So if top-margin, bottom-margin doesn't work on a page with only one system and system-spacing doesn't either, what's next to try? I can set the global staff size smaller but on letter sized paper more than one system per page gets closer to study score size than playable. Thanks Jay
