The Print Catalog feature has not been written yet. But you can still print!

Filter, sort, and arrange the columns to get the list presented how you like. If you want to have a unique "Song ID" for each song, make sure you include the "Song ID" column, I recommend putting it first. This is useful for when the singer turns in their slip, they reference the song by ID *and* by name, so you can be really sure you've got the right one).

Note to older users: the old "unnamed" column never did contain unique numbers, the could change when you deleted songs, sorry, but you should re-print your song books with the "Song ID" column, these ID's are guaranteed to always be unique and never ever change). Click Here to learn more.

Then select all (or just select the ones you want), and Edit->Copy. Now go to whatever program you like to use to print, eg: Excel, AppleWorks, iWork, or even TextEdit. In a text program, you'll have to set up tab stops to adjust column widths. In a spreadsheet, just resize the columns directly. Print!

I'm sure you've figured out this is just a stop-gap measure until I can work on the Printing feature. Clearly it is most optimal to be able to print full song books directly from kJams.
