GOOD TO KNOW

Questions and answers.

Helpful details before you print.

Are clefs or bar lines included?+

No. The staves are blank, so you can add the notation your piece needs.

Can I change the size of the staves?+

Yes. Adjust the spacing control and check the preview; staff line spacing and gaps change with it.

Is this suitable for more than one instrument?+

You can use the blank staves for different instruments, but instrument labels and brackets must be added by hand.
