Change page number during score

I've got a score which I've had to add a section of graphic notation to. I modelled this up in a separate file but now on trying to insert it into the score/parts it's just an unworkable nightmare. So I've decided to make it into a separate pdf and insert it into the right place with Acrobat. This

So, slashed beamed grace notes...

Digging up an old chestnut here... I've gone through the archives and it seems that there was interest from several users for a reliable solution to a slash through the first of a beamed group of grace notes. The oft-quoted solution is the snippet at http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=721 but
