It seems that the Lilypond file one obtains from export is NOT the same as the one Rosegarden uses to generate the Lilypond print preview. I tried upping the font size in an exported Llp file. It made the size (# of pages) come out as I wanted but the printout seemed to be missing the document title & various other score annotations that were in the original. I'll check all that further.

In my exported Lilypond files there is a statement "#(set-global-staff-size 13)" and changing the magic number in there seems to scale the printout. Numbers such as 12, 14,15 seem to work ok so perhaps they could be additional options offered by Rosegarden.

I'm afraid the font sizes appear to be hard-coded in the Rosegarden

and re-building Rosegarden itself, the only option would appear to be
to edit the Lilypond file after export.

I don't know why it is that the sizes are hardcoded -- whether it
reflects anything about Lilypond, or is purely a limitation of
Rosegarden.
