Print Song Book w/ 3.3 Hoster

[admin]

In Word, try changing the Font (try a proportional font like Times New Roman, or a san-serif font like Arial), and the Point size to smaller. I may be wrong, but I think this specific problem is also addressed in the manual. If not, it is in another Forum Thread.

I tried a different font, the rtf file was created with other than Arial and I change it to Times New Roman. That helped some but still not enough. I tried just changing the point size from 10 to 9 and that helped some. Changed it to 8 from 9 and that helped more. I then changed the font to Times New Roman and it all fit. The problem with changing all of that is the page after printing it out is not very easy to read because it is printed in such a small pointed text. I know that if I printed the book like that I would have all kinds of complaints that the book was to hard to read because of the print size.
[U]In the manual under We suggest you select one of the following: 1. MS Word - If you bought MS Office Word, or an equivalnet word processor program , it allows two column formatting, auto page numbering, changing the font and point size if you wish, and adding headers at the top of the page.[/U]
That is all I could find about changing the text for song book printing. I would think if any thing one might want to make the print bigger so the book was easier to read for every one, especially when you are usually under a limited amount of light.

Okay, I'm looking at the file you sent and I have a couple of comments:

#1. Why does every artist name end with a semi-colon? This appears to be coded that way out of hoster.

#2. The problem that I see in the lines where the artist name is crashing into the bookid (and the bookid gets shoved and cutoff in the gutters) APPEARS TO BE --with all due respect-- also out of hoster.
(no measurement/hotzone defined)

I'll see what I can do with this and you let me know what you think.

Chip,

They show up on mine also.

Not just the artist names, but also the titles. I'm guessing this is to distinguish between titles and artist names.

Dean; You're more than welcome.
What's with the dash between the disc Id and track number?

Chip,

What you did with the bad file, you made it look like it was the way it was intended to be out of Hoster.
Thanks, I was sure that I hadn't done anything wrong when I was preparing the song books with Hoster.
