I just went to http://music.maden.org/index.php?title=Shower_Chanteys in Firefox 60.6esr then on the second line clicked on "download the songbook" which took me to http://music.maden.org/images/7/72/Shower_Chanteys.pdf. I then selected print and let the system sort itself out. I have seen a similar problem over fonts with FF before though, it displays perfectly, then somewhere in a long printout gets itself in a mess. If, on the other hand, I explicitly download the PDF to my machine, then Evince Document Viewer 3.28.2 is called up and both display and printing work perfectly. If I can answer your PM to me here: unfortunately I can't show you a recording, it is the way I learnt it in the 1970s. I remember seeing text about the mode shift and asking a teacher at school. My father seemed to think I had it right, and he was ex RN for his National Service. -- J Martin Rushton MBCS
