Installed Logos 9 Basic on two machines.  Both showing the same behavior.  English text is being somewhat randomly replaced with Greek characters.  Pretty sure First Samuel was not written in Greek.  :)

    HI Craig - and welcome to the forums

    English text is being somewhat randomly replaced with Greek characters. 

    Can you post a screenshot (use paperclip icon) in a reply to this thread showing what you are describing?

    And are you running on Windows or Mac?

    Sure thing.  I circled some examples.  I'm using a PC - Windows 10.  I installed last night on my laptop and figured I did something wrong.  Then up upgraded to Logos 9 on my desktop this morning and got the same results.  It looks like it's not actually Greek, just transliterated characters for English.  I'm not a Greek expert, but I can make out enough to see that it's still the English words, but using the roughly equivalent Greek characters.

    Which fonts do you use? This looks like you replaced the resource font with a non-Unicode Greek font. Can you share a screenshot of the program settings (available from the Tools menu or through the application's "kebap" menu, the three vertical dots on the very top right)?

    It looks to me like some of the highlighting styles are setting the font of the text to one of the fonts NB.Mick is talking about. Can you check the settings of one of your styles from the "My Notation Style" palette (specifically the "Font Styling" settings).

    You are right, looking closely it's marked-up text, not all text that has changed. Font styling the highlighter to e.g. Teknia Greek will look like this.

    Interesting.  That was it.  The "Default Resource Font" was set to "Symbol".  I changed it to "Segoe UI" and everything corrected.  The strange part is that I'm certain I did not set the value to "Symbol".  An installation anomaly, perhaps?  At any rate, it's all good now.  Thanks for your help.
