That'll teach me for cross-posting, thanks Carl, but (cut pasted here as

That, sadly didn't change anything, I also removed/commented my
'#(set-global-staff-size 24)' in the main file and that did revert back to
the correct-looking glyphs but the staff size is now too small and *just*
using this 'define' setting seems to do nothing to the actual staff size
of my file.
The default is too small, so at this time as I still don't know what this
'myStaffSize' entry does or doesn't do and as this seems to be the only
documented way of establishing whole document fonts, I am forced
(unfortunately) to use explicit overrides in each of my sixteen scores
(sigh).
Do any 'schemers' understand this 'define' and perhaps give me some clues
on how to use this without it affecting my glyphs?
