Emailing a set list to your bandmates
After you've created a set list, you can tap the Email button to send it to your bandmates. Read on for more details:
- By default, the set list will be sent as an HTML file attached to an email message. These files should display in the default web browser when your recipients download and open them (click here for an example). Recipients can then print the files using the browser's print command.
- Some email programs will display a plain-text preview of the attachment. To see the complete set list with its formatting, your recipients will have to download it and open it.
- Emailed set lists should display and print on a single page -- Set List Maker fits 18 songs onto a page at the normal font size, and automatically reduces the font size if you have more than 18 songs in your set. If your set displays on more than one page, you might have to shorten your song titles or your entries in the Other fields so that each song fits onto one line. You can also adjust the text size in the Set List Options section of the database settings.
- You can control which fields appear on your set lists by editing your database settings and toggling the options in the Set List Contents setting. These options also control the layout of set lists when printing or using performance mode.
- Since the emailed set list is a simple HTML file, you can edit it in a text editor, an HTML editor or a word processor if you wish.
- If your recipients have trouble with the HTML format, you can open your database settings and change the "emailed set list format" option to RTF. Recipients can open and edit these files in TextEdit on Macs, WordPad on Windows or other RTF-compatible applications. However, the formatting generally looks better in the HTML format.
- At this time, set lists cannot be emailed as PDF files because of compatibility problems with the PDF format.
