Sorry, Werner, unfortunately I didn't do that. It really didn't occur to me that this could be a feature. However, I don't understand why the default is not "0". Space is rare and you often can't waste it, especially not in the title.

Thanks
Andreas

PS I had already inserted "top-markup-spacing = 0\mm"

Have you looked into the 'changes' file from LilyPond?  The first
entry for the 2.25.x series is

   Margins are now wider by default following the general layout of
   several publishers (and the recommendations of Elaine Gould).

   In order to switch back to the previous settings (e.g., to keep the
   same layout when upgrading an existing score to version 2.25.14),
   add the following code:

   ```
   \paper {
     top-margin = 5\mm
     bottom-margin = 10\mm
     top-system-spacing.basic-distance = 1
     top-markup-spacing.basic-distance = 0
     left-margin = 10\mm
     right-margin = 10\mm
     inner-margin = 10\mm
     outer-margin = 20\mm
     binding-offset = 0\mm
   }
   ```

It seems to me that you should adjust the `top-markup-spacing` value
in your settings.
