Can school teachers and private music instructors photocopy TuneSheets PDFs for all of their students?

Yes! Every blank paper sheet, theory worksheet, fingering chart, and public-domain score downloaded from TuneSheets.com grants an unlimited, royalty-free Classroom & Private Studio Photocopy and LMS Distribution License (Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology).

Do I own the copyright to original music I compose on TuneSheets blank manuscript paper?

100% yes. Blank staves, tablature grids, and Nashville number templates are utilitarian musical stationery. Any original melody, arrangement, or composition you write or print onto them belongs exclusively to you, and Clean Composer Mode removes all footer branding for commercial publishing or university submission.

What commercial uses are restricted under these Terms of Use?

While teaching, performing, and distributing handouts to students is completely free, you may not scrape and resell unaltered TuneSheets-generated worksheets, fingering charts, or answer keys as paid digital downloads on marketplaces such as Etsy, TeachersPayTeachers, or Amazon KDP.
