    Okay, I was dense - only the Latin appears not the English for ST

    Well, a new dataset came today, but it keeps the same problem: not showing Summa (English) under the Medieval section in the Systematic theologies in the Passage Guide

    Thus I made a workaround: I bought the Latin version and use the English as the parallel resource. This may sound like a drastic decision, but I've been thinking to have the Latin version.

    I have keep source formatting.

    Hi, Daniel. I apologize for the trouble. This was an intentional change as part of the fix for the problem reported here. We had our "default" font set as Times New Roman (which, happily for you, coincided with your target font). Most Word users, however, use Word's default font, Calibri, and we intentionally changed our default font to match the default for the majority of users.

    Ultimately, whether to respect the font of the copied text is up to the receiving application.

    Is it impossible for you to allow the user to set "[ y ]our 'default' font"?

    Same settings as Daniel, but when I Ctrl-V from a commentary in Word, it pastes it in as Calibri 12pt. My Normal style is Arial 10pt. If I right-click in my sermon, and select "merge formatting," it pastes in as Arial 10 pt.

    With this latest update, does it paste into Word in the users normal font choice, or is it still coming in as Calibri 12pt?

    That is happening to me also. I end up having to manually change the font.

    Bumping this thread to advocate for the solution of being able to set a personal default font for pastes.

    I don't do most of my serious work in Word but Nota Bene, where the default is still Times New Roman. I do not want to switch to using Calibri for academic writing. That Logos thinks I should whenever I do a paste is somewhat annoying.

    It is possible to do a paste that strips out the formatting, but it strips out all the formatting, such as italics in the original.

    Please reconsider and fix this.

    Amen!

    Also, since this bad change, when I use the Logos tool to copy Hebrew text and paste it into BibleWorks, the first word is always a different font from the rest of the quotation. So I always — ALWAYS — have to re-format just the first word. As so:

    My copy of Logos 8 reports that I have version 8.14.0.0010. When I submit the Update Now command it reports there are no updates available. Also, when I download the installer, it reports that I am running the latest software. How can I update to 8.9?

    You are running 8.14 which is more recent (the current version) than 8.9

    Summa Theologica by Aquinas does not show up in systematic theologies anymore.

    Looks like it has been fixed, probably was a dataset problem.
