But, if you are scanning a physical book, it is almost as much work to scan the full book in a single pdf as scanning it in as separate songs. (For example, if you do it as a single pdf a and you mess up one page, might need to start again from the beginning).
So, if you are scanning a physical Real Book, maybe might as well do a separate pdf for each song. (Or maybe only scan in the songs you play and then add others later).
It is true, there is more work naming each song that way, but it is a difficult to deal with a large single book in MS. On the other hand, I know there are some people use a pdf Realbooks in MS. I have read some posts where there were some difficulties (indexing, loading etc.), but, maybe that is the exception, and maybe it does work for most people.
I am curious to hear from more people who input large books as a single pdf.
