JustChords: Possible to export with any/all sheet music PDFs that have been added?

in General App Discussion

Hiya, It seems justchords files don't include external assets? I make extensive use of PDFs and there doesn't seem to be a way to export/save/backup/share a Just Chords file that collects this in with the setlist/repertoire. Is there a way? Does anyone use something else as an alternative?
Thanks

    I currently have about 140 songs with PDFs and I can see all the files backed up on my iCloud in the JustChords folder.

    That sounds like a similar case to me., I don't use icloud. Thus I don't know what that means for me. Please explain like I'm about 6 years old: When I go to save a file that can be shared with other people, the file is only text, none of the PDFs are included. Whatever I save opens with no PDFs added to it. The fact that your icloud folder includes the PDFs suggests there is a format of backup that does include the PDFS, but how would you go about sharing to someone thats not your own account, so not just retrieving from your icloud a setlist that includes the relevant PDFS already in each song and thus the setlist, and wouldnt need to be added from scratch? Maybe my justchords is wonky. But files I save/share don't have any sheet music files in them, even though the thing I was saving does.

    I don't think JC can do this at the moment. I only mentioned iCloud to show how the backup works. The PDF files are stored there in a separate directory. There is a "Backup" option in the Folder menu, but it only creates a JSON backup file and does not include any PDFs.
    On the JC Discord server, there's a "feature request" channel where you can ask for a full export feature.
    In my opinion, the SongBookPro format could be a good candidate for solution because JC already supports basic importing from it, including PDFs. It's a single ZIP-based file that contains a JSON file along with a directory of PDF files.

    Ok thanks, appreciate the confirmation, and that I'm not crazy :smiley:
    Full export would be great in my opinion.

    I need to correct my overly optimistic statement about the SongBookPro format. As it turns out, it can't hold both lyrics+chords and a PDF for a single song. It’s either one or the other. :/
