Installation

Download the zip file and install according to the default Plugin Installation method

For output as docx the pandoc converter is necessary as internally an html page is generated and then converted to docx. That is also the reason why when selecting docx output there being both html and docx files.

The generation of docx files uses the included reference.docx file as reference. To alter the look of the output modify the styles in this document, Heading 1 is the title of the score, Heading 2 is the style of song part headings and Heading 3 is the style of the instrument indication.
All other output is hardcoded so far.
