Dan,
Will a PDF file display in vArranger?
I have thousands of lead sheets in PDF format.
How are music sheets displayed with songs when called up.

Hi Deane,

For now, it's better to convert pdf to jpg
Dan,
I converted 2 PDF leadsheets to .jpg format. I have a Folder named "Gig Set" in which I have about 17 songs so far. I created a Folder named "Score" in the Gig Set Folder. In the Score folder I placed the 2 converted jpg leadsheets.
To check the setup I selected Gig Set and selected one of the songs for which I had copied the leadsheet into the Score folder. No leadsheet is displayed. Perhaps I misunderstood - is a 2nd display needed to see the leadsheet?
Deane
The name of the song must be exactly the same as the partition.
For exemple :
Another day in paradise.PAT -> Another day in paradise.jpg
If the names are different the jpg is invisible.
For exemple :
Another day in paradise.PAT -> Anotherday in paradise.jpg
Exact
Dan and Lylo,
Thanks for the hint. The problem was the file names are "CASE SENSITIVE".
Problem solved and it does works great. Only problem is I need to resize the jpg
file to display a bit larger.
Deane
Dan,
The leadsheet displays now but I would like for it to be larger. Is there a way to cause the leadsheet to
be larger when displayed?
Deane
There are many PDF to JPG converters. Some can allows you to set a size when converting.
I never use PDF file, only JPG.
