Re: Not enough vertical room for headers?

[Alasdair McAndrew]

In answer to people's enquiries, here is my mini-example.  I 
thought it would be something to do with the length of the score, 
but apparently not:

--

\version "2.18.2"

\header{
 title = "Duo Galante Number 1"
 instrument = "Treble recorder and viola da gamba"
 composer = "Esprit Philippe Chedeville (1692 - 1762)"
}

\score {
 r4
 \layout { }
}

--

I'm also attaching the output I obtain.

Description: Mini lilypond example

I tried to wrap the whole thing in a book environment, but it made 
no difference.

Many thanks,
Alasdair
