It's sounds like an a4/letterpaper problem.  That is, your pdf file is
somehow assuming a4 paper, when the page generated is actually letter.
So the title gets chopped off, since A4 islonger and narrower than
letter.

I somehow always manage to get those fixed, often by writing mailing
lists like this one, but I don't claim to really understand where any
of these tools are getting their idea of what kind of paper you have
in your printer.    It seems unnecessarily complicated and error-prone
to me.

But I've had fewer problems like this since I started having my script
that runs lilypond say:

     lilypond  --set=papersize="letter" <name>.ly
