What is a print license? A print license is a license granting authority from a copyright holder, songwriter or publisher to reproduce and distribute a song in printed format. This includes the use of song lyrics or material from a Word Music product in music books, the creation of song sheets or any other printed form.

A print license must be obtained for each song from the song owner. It is important to know that prior to requesting a print license, one should have the exact name of the song and copyright information, UPC information of printed music that you would like to reproduce, description of the purpose for which you wish to use the song and the amount of copies that you will be printing.
