Is there a way to control the vertical spacing between the lines of the
lyrics?
I want to reduce the spacing slightly between the lines to see if I can
get a
piece to fit on one page. I tried playing with these but to no avail.
\override Score.LyricSpace #'padding = #0
\override Score.LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #0
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The following might help...
Regards
Bill

}
