Print Lyrics from CDG

[ziggy]

Hope I'm posting this in the right place!
Does anyone know of a program that will allow me to take the lyrics from a cdg & print them. My mother lives in a sheltered housing scheme & I'm making a compilation disc of old time songs for them to sing along to, but they don't have a karaoke machine. If I can do it this way, it would, hopefully be quicker than downloading lyrics from the net & would ensure that they are matched to that particular arrangement.

i dont think that is possible!!!,the lyrics are converted into a graphical display when the cdg is created,so there are no lyrics in a printable form!!.It,s like putting small images of words into a video!! i wish there was a way!! it would save me hours!!!!

I've come to that conclusion, too, Steve. I was hoping that, since there are programs to create the cdg file to play in sync with the mp3, that there would be some way to reverse the process with the actual cdg file. Ah, well, I've got most of them done now.
If I find such a program, I'll let you know.

Have you tried asking at the ....alt.karaoke newsgroup.

I've nearly finished doing them now, but I'll try that Frank.
