-@section Fitting music onto fewer pages
-
-Sometimes you can end up with one or two staves on a second
-(or third, or fourth...) page.  This is annoying, especially
-if you look at previous pages and it looks like there is plenty
-of room left on those.
-
-When investigating layout issues, @code{annotate-spacing} is
-an invaluable tool.  This command prints the values of various
-layout spacing commands; see @ref{Displaying spacing} for more
-details.  From the output of @code{annotate-spacing}, we can
-see which margins we may wish to alter.
-
-Other than margins, there are a few other options to save space:
-
-@itemize
-@item
-You may tell LilyPond to place systems as close together as
-possible (to fit as many systems as possible onto a page), but
-then to space those systems out so that there is no blank
-space at the bottom of the page.
-
-@example
-\paper @{
-between-system-padding = #0.1
-between-system-space = #0.1
-ragged-last-bottom = ##f
-ragged-bottom = ##f
-@}
-@end example
-
-@item
-You may force the number of systems (i.e., if LilyPond wants
-to typeset some music with 11 systems, you could force it to
-use 10).
-
-@example
-\paper @{
-system-count = #10
-@}
-@end example
-
-@item
-Avoid (or reduce) objects which increase the vertical size of
-a system.  For example, volta repeats (or alternate repeats)
-require extra space.  If these repeats are spread over two
-systems, they will take up more space than one system with
-the volta repeats and another system without.
-
-Another example is moving dynamics which ``stick out'' of
-a system.
