I'm looking for a simple program that will enable me to print out chord
charts. I don't need notation/tab/midi playability/etc.

I DO need to be able to print with repeats, rests, key signature, bar lines
and legible chord names. Also song title and author. Must be able to set
number of bars per line. Ability to automatically transpose would be very
nice but not essential.

I can do most of this with Finale Notepad but I would like to be able to do
it a lot quicker/easier.

I really want something similar to Band in a Box's chart printing but I
don't want to buy Band in a Box just for this.

Thanks.

We use liveChord. It is a great program for creating chord charts with or without lyrics. It has a lot of great features and uses slash notation for indicating measures and repeats. The charts can easily be transposed and edited. You can export the charts to PDF and print them. It has built-in MP3 playback and a lot of other really cool features.
