Full Version: Trying to Zoom all the song lyrics pdfs
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Google says that pdf song lyrics cannot have font adjusted but zooming could be done.  I will have both hands on my guitar and my foot by the page turner stomp pedal. I won't be able to stop playing and pinch and spread lyrics with two fingers.  How can I find an option to have everything zoomed a little for better reading of lyrics without putting on reading glasses in my gig.  Selecting an individual song to edit does not give me a zoom slider in the song overlay menu or a letter A to click on for editing. I am lost in trying to make larger lyrics. Find searching the manual and googling with lots of differently worded questions does not give me an answer that I can follow on the actual mobile sheets screen.  Ideally, I would like to edit the songs globally and not each individual song.  But I will do whatever will work. Thanks for you help.
Have you used the cropping tool (tap center of screen, 2nd icon bottom left) to remove all the margins from the songs? - this zooms the page to the display.

If that is not enough, try editing the song, select the Files tag and change the Page Order e.g. 1-4 to 1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4. You can then crop each "page" as desired.

If still too small, you might want to try landscape mode with half page displays and/or vertical scrolling (I've no experience of doing this)

Thank you, so much, Geoff.  I had not considered cropping to change the appearance of the text.  I'm going to try that and see how the PDFs look.  This is a great idea.  I'm learning.  Thanks.
