1) First copy text from the score like (title, subtitle, composer, etc.)
2) Paste that text and the result will be that text plus code that indicates the font size.

For example

El Listón de Tu Pelo

the result should be

El Listón de Tu Pelo


Comments

Pasting it to some editor, outside MuseScore, indeed results in "<font size="24"/><font face="FreeSerif"/>El Listón de Tu Pelo"
But where and why is that a problem?

Has this been resolved? To the question "Why is that problem" ... I will try to explain. It is a nuisance to copy text to be pasted elsewhere and then need to parse through the pasted version and remove all the HTML code to make it look like the source. For thousands of documents over the years I've used copy & paste, I don't recall needing to do this extra work anywhere else. It takes time and tends toward error and misses the point of copy and paste. I hope that answers that question. So ... is there a solution? Thanks much. (PS ... I LOVE Musescore, and sincerely thank you for all the time you put in to helping people with things like this. I know it is a labor of love!) 😊
