Title: setting choir music compact and enlarged

Message:
I want to set choir music in two different styles: (a) two voices in one line (first voice with stems up and text above line and dynamics near the top of the line, second voice with stems down and text below line and dynamics near bottom of line) (b) each voice on its own line (stems automatically up and down, text below, dynamics above).

Generally, (b) is easier to input (because of uniformity) so I guess it is easier to start with (b).

How do I create (a) from (b)? Do I actually have, for each pair of voices, to (1) delete text of upper voice (2) insert text as `text above line' (3) select dynamics (4) move dynamics up (5) make lower voice a second voice in its line (6) copy and paste lower voice intp upper voice, ... and finally delete each other line?

Is there a kind of automatic procedure which transforms (b) to (a) (and possibly back)?
