Hi Guys! 
The vector image of my song is way too big for a A4 Word-page. 
Are there any opportunitys to cute the Picture in half, or to copy the Song as Text and not as Image? 
Thank you in advance!

Hi Timo!

Yes: you can select a part of your song before copying it as a vector image. In this way you can paste your song in two or more sections.
Even if it is obvious, let me remark that you can also resize your pasted image in Word.

Best,
Luca

Oh no I was too confident. 
Everytime i select a part and want to copy it, I still got the whole image. 
How can I only Copy the selected Part? 
Thank you again!

That's weird, I've used this feature thousands of times.
Just select the part of the song you are interested in (e.g., one or more verses). Then give the command Edit > Copy as Image or, alternatively, press CTRL + D. Go to Word and paste.
Which operating system and Songpress version are you using?

Im on Windows 10 and Songpress version 1.7.2

I really don't know what's going wrong. I've tested it now on Windows 10, Songpress 1.7.2, and it worked for me.

Could you try to:
- select some text in Songpress
- export your song as PNG, Enhanced metafile or SVG (File > Export as...)

Even in this way Songpress should export only your selection.
If you use the Enhanced metafile format, you will be able to insert the file (which is a vector image) in Word.

It does not work. 
I always get the whole Text. I dont know what I am doing wrong. 
With the left mouse button (hold) I select the Part I want to export. 
In the "Preview" window, I cant mark anything, so i guess I have to mark the text in the "Edit" Window right?

Yes, you should select text on the "Edit" part of the window:

I don't know if you could try on a different computer, I have no other ideas.

I just found the problem I think! 
There wasnt enough Space between the Parts, so the Programm took everything instead. 
Thanks for your help! :)
