Space for second page title

I should be able to figure this out, but I can't seem to do it easily. Piece has no lyrics. I am using PageTxtMaestro and multiple PgTxts as the first items in the file to create title information. I have the Staff Upper and Lower Boundaries set to 38 and 5 to allow room for the title lines. In the second measure I have a Boundary Change with Set new boundary offset set to 15 and 5 for the staff lines after the first. But this is too close to the top on the second page. I could add two additional Boundary Changes for the top and other staves on the second page, but I would have to figure out exactly where in the score to add them. And this would get very tedious for a ten-page work. Is there one object or setting to leave extra space at the top of every page?

Change the top margin setting?  This will affect every page, but maybe you can adjust the space for the first page to accommodate?  I assume you have turned off "Title Page Info" given you are using PageTxtMaestro for this function.

That was easier than I thought. I thought that the PgTxt data would be bound by the margin, but I see that the y location can be negative. Problem solved! Thanks.
