With the MusicPad Pro: http://freehandsystems.com/products.html

I'm able to directly IMPORT: BIAB, MS Word, ChordPro, and 'any other' printable music or text documents into the MusicPad Pro unit for viewing. It takes only 3-4 seconds to import each song doc this way.

The MusicPad Pro offers many features not possible using a laptop. Because files are converted to .fh (freehand) format, you can store a combination of BIAB, Word, ChordPro created songs all in ONE database for quick retrival & display. You can even store a song doc to include separate pages (lyrics) created in Word or Chordpro, with another page which includes the leadsheet of that same song orignally created by another software program. You can also add rehearsal marks & notes, and optionally hide these if you choose. I'm begining to really appreciate the many hidden benefits of the MusicPad Pro. I'll post a review of this device as soon as I find the time.
