How to export PDF's with chosen texture as background?
Greetings, people.
I would like to know if there's a way to export my PDF's with the same background texture I chose on the preferences, instead of just a white background. If yes, how can I do it?
Thanks in advance.

I know you can add images, but you need to manually set and adjust the image on all parts and pages. I just don't want my PDF background to be completely white.

That is going to use a lot of ink to print - are you sure you wouldn't rather just use colored or textured paper?
If you need it to also be non-white in your PODF viewer, see if it has an option to change the background.
If you want it to be non-white in everyone else's PDF viewers also - definitely not recommended, since most people will not want this - you could use a PDF editor to add a watermark, if adding the image to your score isn't to your liking.

It's just for me, and I'm not going to print it, I'll be using a tablet. The app I use to view sheet music does have an option to more of a sepia tone, but it's pretty bad, since everything (including the notes) gets a very yellow-ish tone. And it's not that adding an image as background is not to my liking, but it's a lot of handwork to do. I really thought that there was an automatic way to just export the PDF's with the background I chose on my preferences, but it's ok. Thank you again.

To do so, thus add an image and size it as required; then copy and paste it to the other pages. You'll likely want to add zero-height vertical frames at the start of each page to anchor the image into so no repositioning is required then.
