When printing a lead sheet with note based lyrics, the lyric at the end of one line often re-appears at the start of the next line, in the margin. This doesn't show in the preview, but does show in both hardcopy prints and PDFs. Does anyone know the solution please?

Firstly, welcome to the forums.
I haven't heard of this. Can you share the BiaB version and build number (Help > About), and also which PDF and paper printer are you using?

Hello JT-W! Welcome to the forums.
Our Band-in-a-Box Windows and Band-in-a-Box Mac subforums are the best place to get Band-in-a-Box specific help as people look in these areas to assist other users.
That said, can you post a screenshot of the print settings you have for us when you go to print your lead sheets, and can you also let us know if fakesheet mode is enabled at all or not?
Cheers,
Ember

BIAB does, and has ever since note lyrics was introduced, had a real problem printing "long" lyrical phrases.
It does not seem to recognize when there are too many lyric elements to fit in a bar so overflow or stacking often occurs.
My work around is to either reduce the number of bars on a line or make one large element out of two or more smaller elements. So 3 syllables such as 'in' 'the' 'night' becomes one syllable, 'in the night' attached to the first note. Some times it works, other times not.
The introduction of bar based lyrics helped some of those who were still on line based lyrics but needed more control, but it has caused some problems since it seems to want to centre everything.
You can change the lyric size, bars per line and even lines per page, but it is really only a work around and the problem is still there.

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.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
