Share, export, and print songs

SongSheet Pro facilitates easy sharing, exporting, and printing of individual songs within your library.

While viewing the song you wish to share, open the share sheet by tapping (the share button). This will present you with several sharing options. These options include exporting, printing, saving the song, or sending it through another app.

Export as

SongSheet Pro offers several export formats. These include ChordPro v4.6, ChordPro v5.0, PDF, OnSong, and DSBsoft Song Sheet for Windows.

For most export formats, tap the format you want, then choose how you want to share or save the exported file. Depending on the format and the apps installed on your device, this can include options such as Mail, AirDrop, Copy, or Save to Files.

If you choose PDF for a SongSheet Pro song, SongSheet Pro opens the Options screen. This lets you adjust paper, layout, and formatting before you share, save, mark up, or print the PDF. For more detail about those controls, see Exporting songs as PDF.

When trying to export non-native files such as PDF or Word, the export options are much more limited. PDF songs can only be exported as PDF, and other formats can only be exported as their native format or as a PDF. If you wish to export to another format, first convert the song into SongSheet Pro’s native format, then export the converted file to the desired format.

Print / PDF

Choose Print / PDF to open the Print / PDF Preview screen. From here you can adjust the paper setup, song layout, and formatting before printing the song or creating a PDF.

If you open this screen while viewing a non-native format, you will be presented directly with the print menu. To access SongSheet Pro’s full range of song formatting options, convert the file to SongSheet Pro’s native format.

Save to Files

This will allow you to save the song directly to your device’s file system.

Sending through Mail

You can choose an app such as Mail, AirDrop, or Messages from the share sheet. If you choose Mail, a mail compose window will be opened, in which the song you have selected is embedded within a link. Because some mail clients do not handle the embedded data in the link properly, the song is also included as an attachment.

Specify a recipient in the To: field, then tap Send. The recipient should open the email on their iPad, and then simply tap the link within the email to import the song directly into their copy of SongSheet Pro. If the link doesn’t work, then they’ll need to open the attachment instead, at which point the device will prompt the user to open the file in SongSheet Pro.
