This tely file:
----------------
\input texinfo @node Top
@top

@lilypond[papersize=c9landscape,verbatim,quote]
\book {
  \score {
    \relative c' {
      c1
    }
  }
}
@end lilypond

@bye
-----------

produces (in part):
------
\paper {
  #(set-paper-size "c9landscape")
  indent = 0\mm
  line-width = 5\in - 2.0 * 0.4\in
  force-assignment = #""
  line-width = #(- line-width (* mm  3.000000))
}
-----

Since there's less than 2.3 inches in the 57mm-wide c9landscape paper, lilypond complains.  It would be nice if the 5\in wasn't hard-coded.

(20 minutes of poking around inside lilypond-book didn't fix it for me.  I may try again later, but for now I'm not owning the issue)

This is probably a duplicate of issue 1816.  Let's keep that other issue.

No duplicate. If papersize option is given, lilypond-book should not any automatic line-width detection (only if given explicitly).

As this issue has no patch, no owner, and no activity for over 4 years I'm reverting the Status to Accepted.
