If you want some other layout than what ly2dvi offers
by default, you have to do some more manual twiddling.
The attached update of the FAQ should help.

Again, see the attachment.

Yes, there've been some requests to reintroduce the
support for a `copyright´ paper variable to be
printed at the bottom of the first page.

-@subsubsection How do I change the TeX layout?
+@subsubsection How do I change the page layout?
-See @file{lilyponddefs.tex}, it has some comments. Or use @file{ly2dvi}.
+The height and width of the music on each page is set
+using the paper variables @code{textheight} and @code{linewidth} in
+the input file.
+If you want to change the placement of the page number or the
+layout of the title, you could run @code{lilypond infile.ly} and
+include the generated @file{infile.tex} file in your own LaTeX
+wrapper file. The easiest way is to start from the ly2dvi default
+layout, using the following steps (assuming that the input file
+is @file{infile.ly}:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+
+ @item @code{ly2dvi -kK infile.ly}
+
+ @item Edit the generated LaTeX file @file{infile_lyN.tex} (@code{N} is
+ some number) to get the desired layout. Some aspects are determined in
+ the file titledefs.tex.
+
+ @item Run @code{latex infile_lyN.tex}
+
+ @item If you update the Mudela file, run @code{lilypond infile.ly}
+ and then @code{latex infile_lyN.tex}.
+@end itemize
+Another alternative is to use @command{mudela-book}, where smaller or
+larger music examples can be included in a LaTeX or Texinfo file.
+
+@subsubsection The tagline is visible in the .dvi file but is not printed on paper.
+
+The default page size is A4. If you use letter sized papers,
+add the following at the top of your Mudela file.
+@example
+\paper@{
+ papersize="letter";
+@}
+\include "paper20.ly"
+@end example
+(Note that setting the papersize in the ordinary paper section inside
+a score declaration will not have the desired effect.)
+The default paper size can be set globally for the installation
+in the file @file{declarations.ly}.
@subsubsection How do I place lyrics under @emph{each} of the staves in a score, as
choral music. I can work out how to put lyrics for each line all under the top line,
or at the bottom but not between!
