MAKING A PDF OF LEADSHEET #181060 11/27/12 01:06 PM Band-in-a-Box for Windows

I have made a tune in BIAB and the 'band' is going to play it in a few days. I wanted to send the Bass player his notes and although I can SEE them in the Leadsheet with 'Bass' applied, I cant make a PDF of it to send him. I'm sure I used to be able to. I thought it might be by the "Print" tab but that only shows up my Printer. Am I missing the obvious - like I need to DL a PDF Maker into my NEW HD? cheers Ian Old Guys Rule.The older I get,the better I was!

Mind you, I'm pretty sure about things that I'm not sure about nowadays. cheers ian Old Guys Rule.The older I get,the better I was!

These are useful -- tiny, editable with a simple graphics program, and fast to display with any picture viewer. For BiaB 2012: Display the leadsheet, with the part you want Press Print Press Print Preview Press SAVE or SAVE++ at the top (both do the same thing) Then choose from a list of graphics formats. Lowest res PNG is extra good for black and white scores. It will be saved to the same directory where you have your BiaB file. The files look great. If you ever want to, you can drag those leadsheets into Acrobat later and make yourself a PDF fakebook arranged as you like it. Larry ______
