2 questions about lyrics and lead sheet: 1)I can enter lyrics but they are in a wrong place in the printed version. They are too low and the lyrics are on the same level of the porint as the chords of the next line. How can I adjust the line where the lyrics will be printed? 2) I have omitted the lead in bars of the song but there is still the lead in bar on the printed version. How can I get rid of that?

I found an old thread but still I can't print a proper lead sheet. The lyrics overlap the next line of chords. Every time my way to get out of this problem is to print a lead sheet without lyrics and then write the lyrics on the paper. http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=395081&an=0&page=6

Hi Matti, When I read through your posts, it sounded to me like you might need to adjust the lyrics position and display on the stave. To do this ... - Go to Leadsheet Mode and then select "Opt" (#1).
- In the window that pops up, select "Notation Options" (#2).
- Now enter a value in the "Lyric Position" box (#3). A negative value will move the lyric down in the direction of lower notes and a positive value will lift the lyrics higher on the treble stave. I suggest trying -1, -2 or -3 to begin with.
- It might also be necessary to reduce the bars-per-line display. This is especially true if there is a large number of eighth notes in the melody and lyrics are attached to each note. A value of 2 or 3, rather than 4, in the "Fakesheet bars/line" box (#4) generally solves visual clutter on the display and the printout.
To get a good printout, I also find it beneficial to do the following ... - Set the number of staves per page in the "Print" options. To do this, enter "Lead Sheet" mode and select "Print" (#1).
- From the menu that pops up, deselect "Auto-set" (#2). (Auto-set automatically sets the number of staves per page and I find that it sometimes crowds the display).
- Lastly, enter a value for "Staves per page". I usually find that 7 or 8 gives a good result.
- Sometimes I also set the "Font Size" (#4) to a lower value - say, 18 or 20.
Hope this helps, Noel

Hi Frank,
Thanks for your vote of confidence! I've also put it over in Tips And Tricks if that helps to find it.
All the best, Noel
