* VERSION (PATCH_LEVEL): Branch lilypond_2_4, release 2.4.0
To change the paper size, there are two equal commands,
@example
#(set-default-paper-size "a4")
- \layout@{
+ \paper@{
#(set-paper-size "a4")
@}
@end example
-The first command sets the size of all pages. The second command sets the size of the pages that the @code{\layout} block applies to -- if the @code{\layout} block is at the top of the file, then it will apply to all pages. If the @code{\layout} block is inside a @code{\score}, then the paper size will only apply to that score.
