What is the best way to allow the music to make maximum use of the screen area? It seems like there are a number of options to specify cropping. Is there a general cropping applied during the download and an individual sheet option? Some of my songs are one page and some are two page. What is the best way to make them the maximum size? My 84 year old eyes need all the help they can get!

I have a collection ' needs editing '. I make sure that is selected in the Companion when I load anything. Then I can go to the needs editing, select the song(s) and edit what's to be added/changed AND crop to the max for each page.

You can enable automatic cropping, and then manually adjust cropping as needed for each page of a song using the cropping editor (load a song, tap the center, tap the second icon at the bottom left, and then "Crop"). The way to enlarge pages to the absolute maximum size is to turn the device to landscape orientation, switch the display mode to vertical scrolling (
