OK - its driving me nuts. I KNOW I've done it before but I've totally lost the "how to". 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

I've been using this one for years. It installs as another printer. Point your doc to the printer and voila. http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/writer.asp

I DLd it. It says it cant do it due to PG licencing restrictions. I'm sure that in the past I used to go straight to it. Mind you, I'm pretty sure about things that I'm not sure about nowadays. cheers ian

If you don't insist on PDF format, BiaB will directly save your leadsheet as a TIF, JPG, or a few other things. 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.

Glad to hear it! Thanks for mentioning how it worked out.
PDF's are just as good, of course. Rachael's virtual-printer method is equally effective. Use whatever seems handiest.

Sixchannel, I often use the snipping tool to save song files and bits of information that I may want to recall later. Leon

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
