Downloading hymns from the LDS.ORG website

as I have loved you

That's not how forums work.

I'm a ward organist. I would like to break from paper hymnals and use an iPad Pro instead. Is there a way to down load the entire hymnbook so that I can use the tablet with Forscore?

I'm not familiar with Forscore, but a few years back (2017-ish, when Gospel Library Hymns wasn't working reliably) I downloaded a PDF file that had most of the hymns as a backup.

From a quick glance, you can generate individual PDF sheet music for most of the hymns via:

https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/med ... s?lang=eng

(Select the song, click the Download button below)

I suspect there is still a way to generate/download a PDF concatenation of the available hymns-- but I'm not readily seeing that on my tiny mobile device screen.

Anyway, it looks like the church still has the original PDF hosted on their CDN:

Unfortunately, a handful of hymns are not included in the digital format due to copyright restrictions.

Good luck!
