You must have misunderstood the pre conditions or missed a step in the instructions because I know my method works every time.

The important differences with this printing is that you do not use the 'Print Notation' button; you use the green button on the left which has a pair of notes on it i.e. The 'Leadsheet Window' button.

In the Leadsheet Window, make absolutely sure the "Fake Sheet Mode" box is ticked!

Then press the 'Print' button at the top of the Leadsheet Window and follow the rest of my instructions.

I have produced thousands of leadsheets this way where I need the Tag to be shown.

I will agree that it is nearly always necessary to hand print some of the instructions, especially when you want printouts in different keys and clefs, because the "Insert Section Text Event" does not cater for these variances. I usually hand print the instructions: "INTRO", "CHORUS" and "Last Chorus to Coda" & "CODA". I also bold up the Repeat signs at the beginning and end of the chorus.
