And please make this into one single MWE not two parts. People are much more likely to help if they have something they can copy and use as is, where we need to make two files, which is not necessary, just replace the input... line with the contents of the second file.

The page numbers can be produced by removing pagestyle{empty} from the code.



The indexes are a little more complicated, this is described in Section 10.3 of the songs package manual. It involves calling a separate Lua script on the files generated after the LaTeX compilation step. In this case the following sequence of commands (in the terminal) should produce an index:



pdflatex yourfile.tex
texlua songidx.lua lbtitle.sxd lbtitle.sbx
pdflatex yourfile.tex


Note that the songidx.lua script must be available in the path of the terminal, however if you installed the package automatically then this should not be a problem.



If you want to compile using a GUI editor or a compiling tool such as latexmk or texify or arara then it is a bit more complex because of the custom index filenames that are defined in the document (here for example lbtitle). However, it is most probably possible to find a custom solution for this as well.



Result of the commands above:

  • Thank you so much on the page numbering issue. on the indexing issue:I do not understand why the newer versions lost its ability to auto-generate the index page? I do not know how to attach or insert my previous auto generated index here? Note my mitex console does not list a songsidx.lua package?

  • @Gert this is compiled using version 3.0 (which I downloaded from CTAN just now to write my answer). This version contains the Lua script as well. The package revision history files states 'Transitioned the songidx program to LuaTeX, eliminating the need for C-compiled programs.' for version 3.0, so apparently it is a simplification of the installation and the dependencies of the package. You can try to install the 3.0 version and see if that works for you.

  • I do not know how to get and download v3.0. I went onto Ctan but it is only giving me the latest versions. I tried googling it to no avail? I got a zip version with the v3.0 files but dont know what to do with them? should have stayed with MS Publisher - much easier....

  • @Gert after extracting the .zip file you should run latex songs.ins which will generate songs.sty. This file, together with the Lua script file which is in the zip file, should be copied to some place where LaTeX can find it, the easiest is the same folder as your document. If you want we can continue in the TeX.SE chat for troubleshooting.
