Dear All, I was very interested in the correspondence about a title-page. I noticed that Kieren's solution seemed to ignore the original header information and insert another markup for it while Valentin's solution produced very small titles while using \book so I took the liberty of combining the two solutions:
%start of file \version "2.10.33" % I strongly recommend using 2.12 or 2.13! #(define-markup-command (vspace layout props amount) (number?) "This produces a invisible object taking vertical space." (ly:make-stencil "" (cons -1 1) (cons 0 amount)) (ly:make-stencil "" (cons -1 1) (cons amount amount))) \paper { print-page-number=##f ragged-bottom=##t ragged-last-bottom=##t print-all-headers = ##t } #(set-global-staff-size 14) \header { title = \markup \center-column { \vspace #64 \fontsize #18 "Mask" } % poet = "Eva Wiest" subtitle = \markup \center-column { \vspace #64 \fontsize #12 "Eva Wiest" } copyright = "Eva Wiest (http://summerandfall.de/)" tagline = ##f } melody = \relative c' { a'1 ~ a2 a4 b4 c2 c4 c4 b2 c4 b4 a2 a4 g4 e2 a4 b4 c2 c4 c4 b2 a4 g4 a1 ~ a2 a4 b4 } textI = \lyricmode { She She is cold as blue ice with a face of gra -- nite, she will ne -- ver give up or give in, She won't } guitar = \chordmode { a1:m f a:m g a:m e a:m g f r } \book { \pageBreak \score { << \new ChordNames { \set chordChanges = ##t \guitar } \new Voice = "one" { \clef treble \melody } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" { \textI } >> \layout { indent = 0.0\cm } \header { title = "Mask" subtitle = "" composer = "Composed by Eva Wiest" poet = "Lyrics by Eva Wiest" } } } %end of file To get another header on the second page, you insert the \header {} into the \score but *after* the music. Also I had to put \subtitle = "" to stop part of the first header from repeating itself. Also, print-all-headers = ##t has to go in \paper {} Thanks to Kieren and Valentin for elucidating this problem. (And thanks to Susan for asking the question) I can now place this code in my archive for future use.
