The "#(layout-set-staff-size 13.0)" line scales everything which is
what I want and something that didn't work in previous tests.  Not sure
what I was doing wrong, but thank you for that.

Changing the paper size is not having the effect it should.  I think
it's because ragged-right is off?  It seems as though the line is just
being scaled as the paper grows.  At some point I'll want to understand
what's going on, but the staff-size change does what I need for now.

Thanks,
