Hi, sorry, another one (simple, I hope...?).

For this score, I'm setting `#(set-global-staff-size 16)`.

I also want to have prefatory matter -- a title page, performance directions, 
and then the score proper starts. The score should start with page 1, so... 
\bookpart. OK.

```
#(set-global-staff-size 16)

\paper {
  #(set-paper-size "letter")
}

\bookpart {
paper {
  print-page-number = ##f
}

\markup { \titlepage }
\pageBreak
\markup \column {
  \programNote
  \vspace #1
  \perfDirections
  \vspace #1
  \elecDirections
}
}

\bookpart {
\paper {
  left-margin = 1.8\cm
  print-page-number = ##t
  first-page-number = 1
}

\score { ... looooong long stuff ... }
}
```

If I put the global-staff-size command at the top, then the text is also 80% of 
its original size. Not what I want.

If I try to set the staff size to 20 in the first bookpart, and 16 in the 
second, then the text size is better (but still a bit smaller than 
specified...???) *and* the margins in the first bookpart are messed up -- too 
large on the right and bottom.

I just want the first bookpart to be typeset as if there were no reduction in 
staff size, and the second bookpart to be printed at the smaller scale.

If this isn't possible then I'd have to typeset the text using other software 
and stitch the PDF together manually. But I shouldn't have to do that, right?
