> I know I could create a new .pdf by cutting and pasting that would just move forward, but that would be a lot of time/work and a real kludge <sic>
No, no, no. I was thinking about doing the same in the beginning before I explored the features of MSP more in depth and learned what a waste that would have been.
You can order the pages in the settings how you like, even duplicate pages without editing the original PDF. So just make a "linear order" of the song by ordering the pages and insert duplicates (just the page number) if needed.
Then you can hide the not needed parts with cropping so it looks like a continuing sheet. It's not too much effort and - as I said - leaves the PDF file completely unchanged. So you can scroll through your sheet with the pedal without jumping or scrolling back.
I've done this for all my bigband sheets with multiple pages and it works well.
