Re: \paper within \score

Hi, Graham:

(I'm still not clear on \paper vs. \layout, since you _can_ have \layout outside of a \score )

Although this may confuse you more, the way I think of it is in Adobe terms:

\layout = story
i.e., one contiguous block of presented material (in this case, usually music)

\paper = artboard
i.e., the dimensions (and other details) of the page(s) on which all of the stories (\layouts) are outputted.

Hope this helps (and not hinders!).
Kieren.
