Re: Fake Book Reply #1 – 2005-10-29 11:45 pm Here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fake_bookYou can also find fake books described, and for sale, from various reputable sources. You local public library probably has a couple of fake books in the music section. That's actually what they are called.NWC would be a fine program for setting up your own fake book. Keep in mind, however, that the original music is probably copyrighted, so you can't go distributing somebody else's music even if you rewrite it. If you need to show guitar chord diagrams, there's a way to add that into NWC (it isn't part of the program itself).Keep in mind that most of the stuff you can legally do has probably already been done, in bits and pieces here and there, by others.

Re: Fake Book Reply #5 – 2005-10-30 08:51 pm Although the Seville font would work (in most cases), it's my understanding that it's part of the package for some other music program, and really shouldn't be used elsewhere. But you can use "FretQwik" even though it doesn't work the same way. Quote Selected
