Export multiple pdfs

Post by Don Rowell »

This feature used to work but has not recently on my iPadOS 16.7.16 with Igig v10.9.9. I can export
(email) a set list file or the tune PDFs as one multi phage PDF but not as multiple individual PDFs.

If you select the mail icon (second icon from the left), you only have two choices.

"Set List Plus PDF"
"Set List Only"

If you select the upload icon(third icon from the left), you have 3 choices

"Music as single PDF'
"Music as multiple PDFs"
"Set List File"

Which option are you choosing?

I used “Music as multiple PDFs” but it only exports 1 single tune pdf.

What does this set list consist of? Meaning, how many songs are from and indexed book and how many are from My Scores?

16 songs from indexed books, 1 from my scores. The one from my scores was only one exported when choosing to export multiple songs as individual PDFs.
I’ve had other set lists with different numbers and combinations of tunes from indexed books and from my scores that didn’t work also.

What you're experiencing is the correct behavior. That export option is designed for items that are in My Scores not for items coming from indexed books. You're not going to be able to have separate PDF files for each song in your set list that is in an indexed book.
