I would like to know why the linewidth and textheight are different for every paper size: > % paper.ly > > linewidth20 = \hsize - 2.5 * \staffheight; > textheight20 = \vsize - 5.0 * \staffheight; > linewidth = \staffheight/20.0 * \linewidth20; > textheight = \staffheight/20.0 * \textheight20; > > indent = \linewidth / 14.0; This makes a linewidth of 18 cm. for paper20 and a linewidth of about 15 cm. for a paper16. What I expect is to keep the same linewidth and textheight but change the size of the music inside, so I had to make my own "paper.ly" > % paper.ly > linewidth = 18 \cm; > textheight = 25 \cm; What's the reason for changing linewidth and textheight?
