I’m exporting graphics images of vocal scores to create a video that follows the music, with page turns to allow the viewer to follow along. Best way to share the “vocals”, which are being realized by Sibelius synth voices, so the viewer can match the melody with lyrics. I import the resulting MP3 and PNG files into a video editor and then do the manual editing to sync everything. Intensive, but it works.

My question is this: the margins of the graphics are not consistent. Sometimes, there’s a nice margin of white, other times the graphic image is cropped so close to the music you can barely determine the last bar line is even there. Is there some way to control this?

I’d also like to control the graphic page size so that it’s the same, even when there are fewer staves. When there are fewer staves, the graphic image is a lot larger, which is kinda disconcerting.

Thanks

I looked closer at the Export Graphics options. All better
