PDF export failing
#1
Hi, having a bit of a nightmare:
I'm trying to export a file as a PDF with annotations but every time I try to save to Dropbox or as a local file I'm getting an error which says "Export operation failed. Ensure the song is not missing files, restart the application and try again"
I've restarted the application a few times and restarted the iPad itself but nothing seems to be fixing it. 
The song (term used loosely, it's about 500 pages long) has had a few pages removed and a couple of PDF files added through the rearrange pages bit.
Mike or anyone else cleverer than me, do you have any ideas? It's really important I get a PDF exported ASAP!

Thanks, 
Jake

(It has allowed me to export as a .msf, just PDF export which brings up the error)

I had a similar Issue. Please check if there are no tab characters  in the filename. In my case the tabs where only vissible in the edit file menu.

While I do now prevent tabs from being in the song titles and filenames, it was allowed for a long time, so if that is an older song, and there is a tab in the name, that could be related to the problem you are seeing. If that's not it, I may need you to backup the library under Settings->Backup and Restore->Backup Library, share a link with mike@zubersoft.com and I can restore your library and try the export to see what is going on. That's the quickest way for me to get you an answer. You can also try toggling the "Export iOS compatible annotations" setting, as that has rather large ramifications in terms of how the export works. If that's enabled, an entirely new PDF is generated from rendered images, which is much slower and generates a larger file. If it's not enabled, MobileSheets annotations are just added as PDF annotations on top of the pages which is much faster.
