Parse/index a hymnal
#1
I have the 1982 Hymnal downloaded BUT it is one document.  I need to have it parsed, indexed with each hymnal number - including the S set.  Can you do that yet?

The best way to do that is to use Import->CSV or PDF Bookmark and select a CSV file that lists all of the individual songs in the PDF. You can find CSVs for common PDFs on the forum here: https://www.zubersoft.com/mobilesheets/f...um-29.html

I downloaded the same PDF out of curiosity, and it has PDF bookmarks already. So just import like so:
1) Tap IMPORT at the top of the library screen 
2) Tap the CSV OR PDF BOOKMARKS option from the dropdown menu 
3) Select the .pdf file 
4) Every bookmark in the PDF will be displayed in the window. Tap each song to create.

I could use that download, can you tell me where you found it?

I think it's this one: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=w...0PHfjhNGRj

While it has bookmarks, they are for sections of the hymnal not individual songs.

I found it, thanks.

As you said, it has bookmarks rather than a way to go to individual songs.  I suppose you can break up a PDF somehow - do you do that in MS or in other software?

If it's not granular enough, then check out this forum to make your own CSV file.

No need to break up the pdf, just create the correct bookmarks. 

Alternatively, I've also used this program to make my own PDF bookmarks, which works really well. But the CSV approach is probably going to be easier.
