I've attached my boilerplate that I use for producing a PDF file with separate title page, table of contents page, and multiple pieces within the file. For a single piece just delete the TOC stuff, the additional bookparts for the additional pieces, and set

first-page-number to zero rather than minus one.

Nice example, I have just a couple of questions:

\bookpart {

  \paper {

    print-page-number = ##t  %% <--  this is not needed, is it?

  }

  \header { 

    title = \markup {

    \fromproperty #'toc:number  %% <-- it doesn't print the number

    " Piece One" } % overrides overall title

You seem to be right on both counts. It's been so long since I created this file that I can't remember why I used those values, or if they ever actually did anything. Scores based on the boilerplate kept building without warnings or errors, so I kept using the file...
