Title: print lyrics
Post by: Fred_Evans on December 05, 2002, 10:04:19 am

Hello everyone-- could someone point me to the way to print the lyrics when I select a given piece of music?
we use the music for community singing at our church and as each sunday has a unique selection of music I would like to print the lyrics onto a transparency at the same time as I am putting together the CD
All help will be appreciated
regards fred evans

More details.  Where are the lyrics that you want to print?  Have you added lyrics to the Lyrics field in the tags of your music files?  In MJ8, you can click on the Lyrics field, choose the Edit button and then choose Copy to Clipboard, then open your prefered text editor (Word, Wordpad, Notepad, etc), paste the lyrics into a new document and print them.

Thanks for the advice- I tried it but found that I lose the formatting (Bold italic etc ) .

I was hoping for something a bit more uptown
I tried the labeller and it is great .
maybe if I could print the lyrics in a similar way -- that is- making up a little album for all the lyrics selected on a particular burn.... you know like if i print a label and then am able to print all the appropriate lyrics??  automatically??
regards and we are having a nice warm summer here

I've never used the labeler that comes with MJ, so I'm not familiar with it's capabilities.  I doubt, though, that you would be able to use it to print the lyrics from the tags.  Not sure what else to suggest.  Maybe try using Google to search for other websites that might have the lyrics you're looking for.
