As wrong as the approach followed in schools in my country for the last 30 years which was and is to make the curriculum easier and easier so no kid feels left behind instead of making the smarter or teach them better and reward achievements instead of just muddling through and "feeling good". It's a joke what kids nowadays are taught today and leaves us with a mess. OK, stopping the rant here. (Or almost: That there aren't used more tablets in orchestras has probably lots to do with lack of availability and opportunity and of course costs for a tablet. My educated guess is, that very rarely anyone switches back to paper after he began using digital sheets with MS, forScore and so on).
But what I'm saying is: Make the user smarter, don't dumb down the application.
And for your drummer: Either he sticks to the "paper route" and keeps to sheets of paper, one with annotations, one without, or he tries to use MS properly. (Though he could scan his 2 papersheets as two pages of one song and switch back and forth as needed in MS).
Thanks for that reactionary analysi, probabili you never came in Switzerland, in the top 5 in terms of money per capita ???
Reality is different and efficiency is different.

You said you could not find the new song - what do you mean by that? If you selected the option to save as a new PDF, it should have asked for the new filename, then when you return to the song editor, you should see that the file is now listed under the name you provided. The existing song is edited to use that new file, so save the changes, then load the song you just edited and it should display the changes you made. If you are saying you encounter an error of some kind and the renamed PDF can't be loaded, let me know.

Don't you mean it is simply a difficulty solved by ability to create song using a "model" ?

Swiss1000 - I already mentioned that adding an option to "Create Snippet" to generate a new PDF instead of reusing the existing one would accomplish what you are referring to. However, that option does not currently exist, so I'm trying to provide guidance for the features that currently exist in the app to solve the issue for fourstrings.

@ fourstringstwowheels: Again: manipulating a PDF is not the best way to get what you need, believe me. Inserting something into a lyrics & chord sheet is VERY easy if you have it in a editable file format. I really recommend that you talk to your leader if he can share something better (maybe just for you).
