Printing problems (Page 2 of 3)

Cool, I'm excited to check it out, do I need to re-create my songbooks or were these other issues?

thanks!

Looks pretty good, now I'm just seeing some issues with individual songs, for instance the version of Little Wing called (Little Wing Easy) by Jimi Hendrix the last bit of tab at the end is all rammed together, ditto Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton (version that's in my book) I've done a revert to original on these and still see the same issues, I'll try re-creating.

Thank you so much for hammering these out! Awesome!

I keep attempting to add a post and it's crashed on me twice now (actually the first time it looked like it succeeded but then it hadn't) now the server failed.

The song prints correctly by itself but now as part of my songbook it prints in a propotional font instead of fixed pitch rendering the tab useless.

Also songs with a title and an artist in the header are now printing with the string "}{ST:" between the two instead of a space.

I will add an office print out file if I can in the next post, in order to try to avoid losing this text for the third time.

I was able to reproduce what you where seeing last time.

If you post the url, I will most likely be able to fix it. What you are seeing is most likely just problem with the server being overloaded. I am moving to a more powerful server very soon.

The lyrics and chords aren't right on this site anyway.  Go over to cowboy lyrics and copy the lyrics to a writing program such as microsoft word and change the fonts to whatever you want.

The song "little wing easy v1" prints in a proportional font, but only while in my song book, deleting it and re-adding does not change it.

I still can't post attachments... This occurs in both Firefox and IE7. Haven't tried opera. The song "Wonderful tonight" prints with an extra space between each line of the tabs, making it difficult to read.

I still can't seem to get a file to upload, maybe they're too large they're at 1.7mb right now. If you can't see it with the book that's already there, I'll see if I can get some time to create a new book with those songs and see what happens.

I can verify this error and you do not have to post the screenshot. It is on the top of my todo-list. Thanks a lot for finding and describing this bug.

Please post the url to that song.

aha,

I know what ye mean.

On the page it looks like there is no big space of blankness, then you print it and there is.

I have had this a few times.

It is easily rectified if it is in your songbook.

Firstly go into your songbook and click on edit for te song.

Then take away all the ### 's and any other thing that doesnt look right. Have it so in the edit part of the song the song starts after the Band name and the title.

this should help you with your big gap of nothingness.

Also this helps when you see a song and some lyrics start a few lines into the song, but if you go in edit, you will see the missing words are actually there.

hope this helps

Hi Admin,

I tried Sending you a PM but I don't think it went through for some reason. Is this enough info to reproduce the bug or do you need something else?

thanks!

I understand you're busy, seems to be an epedemic, but I had seen replies to a lot of other posts so I was worried you were waiting on me!

The PDF file I posted is from FIREFOX so that suggestion isn't going to do anything, I'll try the margins.

The attachment seem to have been lost when I migrated to the new server. Could you send it to admin@chordie.com?
