I have just spent hours trying to get my new 2015 upgrade of BIAB for mac to print multiple lines of lyrics as one of the FAQ articles instructs. But the "Fake Sheet Mode" button it says must be checked doesn't seem to exist in the Lead Sheet view, and the "print multiple lines of lyrics" window doesn't seem to exist in the lead sheet options dialogue. Does this mean that these features are still not available in the the mac version even after this latest build? In desperation I tried adding the second verse of lyrics into the memo window and checked the "print notes" button in the print dialogue, but that didn't show up at the end of the printed sheet as promised either. What the hell? Does this mean us mac users are still the red-headed step children when it comes to printing fake book lead sheets?

I opened a Win SGU with lyrics but none come up in Mac BB, I think I tried this last year when someone else was asking. If you save to midi and open it in Musescore you might be able to get it to print multiple line lyrics https://musescore.org/node/11869 https://musescore.org/en/download If you want you can upload your file and I can try and print on Win to PDF. Yes Win has this option but not Mac yet:

Thanks for the offer, but I have way to many to do. I was hoping on redoing all my charts for my iPad with chords and lyrics, since I'm a vocalist and a polyphonic improviser. This just really ticks me off since I was counting on this feature finally being included in this upgrade. PG introduced this feature for the Windows version back in 2007. And here we are 8 years later and mac users are still left out in the cold. I just don't understand why, especially since this seemed to be a major upgrade. But I'll give your 3rd party software workaround a try, as long as it isn't too expensive. But my understanding is with this upgrade I can install the BIAB app on my iPad. Perhaps I can just open the lead sheet chart from within the BIAB app and use that instead of using pdf charts. The only drawback to that is there is still no Fake Sheet mode in the lead sheet window so you'd have to scroll through to see the second verse lyrics. I don't know...I'll have to experiment, I guess. Thanks again for you response to the thread.
