Song Book Problem - Use 2 columns

When viewing song books by artisit or by title, some songs that have long titles do not adjust to a second line. The Book ID numbers are extended on the same line. How do I fix this? This has been an on going problem prior to 4.06 versions.

I use 2 columns and they wrap just fine with the bookid at the end of the second line. What are you using to view and print it with?

Thanks for reminding me. i need to update my books. If you are using a word processor like MS Word, using two columns and setting the autowrap text setting will take care of these.

I had the same problem but It only happened when I changed the default page size from letter to A4 which is what I use. I find I have to set page margins left and right to about 0.6Cm and the column center margin about .3Cm. By fiddling with these margins I can usually get it right.

There is a box to make it 2 column in the creator, then when it opens in Word it is already 2 columns. If you aren't doing this then you will have it coming in with only 1 column and have to reset it.
