I'm hoping someone can guide me to printing a song on one page only.
Right now two bars are spilling out onto a second page.

I'm sure there must be many ways to achieve this.
If someone can give me guidance I'd appreciate it.

So far I have tried:
Staves per page are set to ten but only nine are showing on the first page. Ten would do it.
I have reduced font size from 24 to 20 but that didn't help.

I wanted to attach my BIAB file here but couldn't see how to do it.

Hi BIAB,

On Page 1 of a song, the title, composer, tempo indication take up the the space of one of the 10 staves. If you had more of the song present, you would see that pages 2, 3, 4, etc., would have 10 staves.

Did you try setting the number of staves to 11?

You could also try setting the "Bars per line" (under "Opt", in Lead Sheet view), 5 or 6. if that scrunches up the lyrics too much, you could set a few of the less cluttered lines to 5 or 6. For example...
by adding 4,4,5,4,4,4,5,6,4,4 lines 3, 7 and 8 will have different number of bars per line while the rest of the song has 4 bars per line.

I hope this helps,
--Noel

Thanks Noel, I didn't see your reply when I posted this shortly after yours.

Well I solved the problem. smile
I tried changing the number of staves from 10 to 12 per page.
I mentioned earlier that even though staves were set to 10, BIAB was only showing 9.

When I changed staves to 12 per page, I got my 10 staves on one page. smile
