By the way: there seems to be an old manual written in 2005. Is this

It may still be useful if you can get it cheap, but it is out of
date. I wrote that just as Rosegarden 1.0 was coming out, and a great
deal has changed since then.
Unfortunately, there is no easy way to put together a print version of
our current documentation. We have moved all of it to a wiki now, in
order to make it easier to maintain, and easier for people to help
with writing documentation, but this has made it more difficult to
produce PDF files.
If someone has a copy of Acrobat Professional (yah, sorry, junk $$$
Windows/Mac software!), it can be used to convert an entire website
(such as a wiki) into a PDF.
The documentation is not in the best of shape either, I fear. I used
to be the documentation writer, and that was my only responsibility.
Now I manage the entire project, and do a lot of the development.
Documentation has fallen way down on my list of priorities, and I
don't have much time to be involved with keeping it up to date. We
have help from several people who have taken up some of my slack in
this area, but the job is very large, and our documentation is always
the last thing to get done.
I wish I had the time. Used to make a living as a tech writer that wrote
user manuals ...
