Yes I tried that but it would not print the copyright on every page
only the first. I couldn't find a 'print-all-pages' type variable that
I could try, and if you have an even number of scores or if your score
moves over a page, then the copyright would be skewed - you'd miss one
unless you then have odd and even footer, but again even allowing for
that I couldn't get copyright on every page unless it was using
scoreTitleMarkup. It seems that taglines and copyright are less
flexible outside of the \score { \header {}} construction.

Thanks. I didn't think of that.
