Is there a way to know the file size of a given resource?
Hi Mik - and welcome to the forums.
Yes - you can do this.
Click the "Resource Information" icon (small "i" at top right of resource pane), scroll down to the bottom and in the "Support Info" section you will see the filename
Resources are stored in the "Resources" folder and you can find this off your top-level Logos directory (https://wiki.logos.com/Quick_Installation_onto_multiple_computers or https://wiki.logos.com/Quick_Installation_onto_Multiple_Macs will help you find out where that is) and then navigate to the subfolder Data/random id/ResourceManager/Resources
You should be able to find the file in there and check the size.
These are not files we should be trying to change in any way so interested to know why do you need this information

Graham gave you the answer to your question, but it might be instructive to know why you are interested in this info.
Thanks, that's precisely what I needed! I recently used someone's Kindle and absolutely loved reading on the E-Ink screen versus a standard screen. So I'm considering purchasing a Kindle mostly just for the sake of reading my Logos resources. However I know you can't send a file larger than 50mb to the Kindle and I wanted to know in advance if the resources I use most would be feasible to transfer to Kindle.
I do wish that you could sync highlighting and use the clippings feature of Logos from an E-Ink device. If Logos was ever to produce their own E-Ink tablet I would buy it in a heartbeat! I would probably buy more resources from them as well, for at the moment I use Logos for it's research power, but I still don't like to sit and read a book on standard screen.
I would not trust the file size in logos to be a good representation of the file size for kindle... They will be in a different format. Most resources, however, aren't in jeopardy of that limitation. More likely, you will run into licensing problems which would make a resource non "kindle enabled."
I love the feature, but I only send books which I am not interested in highlighting (or taking notes).
From time to time people mention Logos making a device... Not a good idea. Either it would be outrageously expensive, or it would put FL under. A better bet: Android e-ink devices. There are some threads about the subject in the Android forum.
