Forgot to answer all. So here again:

Hi Pierre,

many thanks for testing

I made a typo. Last line above should read:
   a line with x-length 20 leads to a 'kern of 173

You're right. After copying into a new file I've got proper results!
My test-file contained some scheme and custom-layout, so first I
thought there was some bleed-over into the new test-score (although I
did all to prevent that).

But no.
It was the global-staff-size.

Setting
#(set-global-staff-size 16)
will show proper output with my values, bad with yours.


So I should ask:
How to get good results with different global-staff-size?


Thanks,
  Harm
