Border drawing around scrore
Hi,
i was wondering if it's possible to get a border around the score. when creating a score ready for marching band booklets its not a std paper size. so i made a style at the correct dimensions for our books. but after creating the PDF out of it it becomes off course a one full page of that size which again my printer does not understand.
To print it now at the correct size i need to zoom.
My proposal/request would be to create the score on A4 with an outline around the score representing the final dimension. that way it is easy cutting the paper.
is something like this available or if not could it be added

Foxit PDF has this feature.
Let's say the paper is A4 but the document you will print is 8.5 x 5.25 inch.
If you set it to, it shows and prints the cutting places.
But, In the Musescore software, you have to set the paper to the size you want to cut (eg Custom: 8.5 x 5.25).

Hi Ziya,
thanks for the response that is offcourse one option and now i know what to look for pdfExchange also has a similar feature. Never the less i would still like to have these board or markers printed by musescore that allows printing 2 scores on one A4 and still be able to nicely cut along the edges.

Of course it would be nice to include such a feature.
But until it's added, we need to know our other options
and there is a tip for users who will read this topic later, and need this feature. 😇

Excuse me, I may be intervening inappropriately.
The standard dimensions of the Band Booklet are as follows: Width 17.78 (cm) Height 12.70 (cm) and the stave, optimal must be 5.5mm high
I usually do it in A5, then I export it in pdf and I open it from adobe, telling it to print 2 pages per sheet with the edges of the page, then I cut following the edges and it's perfect for the booklet
Try also with B6 format, reducing page margins to 5.00 mm
