Uploading PDFs to Catalogue Songs
To upload a PDF to an existing song in the MultiTracks.com catalogue, the song will first need to be in your library. Navigate to the song in the MultiTracks.com Library, then select the "Charts" tab for the song, and select the "Upload" tab pictured below:
Multiple PDFs or a single PDF can be uploaded to a particular song.
After uploading, a prompt will ask for details for the particular PDF. A custom name is required and will help differentiate which PDF is what when uploading Multiple PDFs.
It's also required to attach a PDF to a certain key, however, a PDF attached to one specific key can still be opened manually in ChartBuilder regardless of what key is selected in ChartBuilder.
For use in ChartBuilder, see Accessing in ChartBuilder below!
Uploading PDFs to Cloud Songs
To upload a PDF to a Cloud song, navigate to the song in your Library, and visit the "Charts" tab, and then the "Upload" tab, and follow the similar steps as above, assigning the PDF a description, an optional instrument part, and a key.
