Re: spacing between lines of a lead sheet?

[Mats Bengtsson]

Playing around with your example, it seems that the easiest is to only
use the setting:

between-system-space = 4.5\cm

and keep all other parameters at their default values.

As an alternative, if you want LilyPond to automatically space out the
systems on the page, you can use
\paper{
ragged-last-bottom = ##f
}
and remove all other settings.

If you want to squeeze in much music on a single page, read the section on
"Fitting music onto fewer pages".
