Logos to Scrivener Workflow??

Has anyone developed a process or workflow for taking a project from Logos into Scrivener? How do you bring in Notes and Clippings? Individually? Batch?

Once in Scriveners are they in a big pile in one document or folder or do they show up as a bunch of individual documents?

Any other hints for smoothing out the transition of Logos research into Scrivener?

I too would be interested.

I personally haven't used Scrivener - have you attempted using the Print/Export option for the Workflow that you want to import? I was able to easily export a test workflow as RTF and import to Libreoffice Writer and it imported the information and format pretty good.

Not sure about Clippings, but I was also able to use the Print/Export for Notes as well.

Probably not as automatic import as you may be looking for, but a start to get the information over.

Scrivener isn't a traditional word processor. It is designed for flexibility and organization on LONG projects (i.e book length). The number of users who regularly use both Logos and Scrivener (both niche apps) is likely very small.

I am at the research stage for a project with an unknown end. I may write an article. I may write a book. If I end up doing the latter, Scrivener would be a tool I would like to be more familiar with. There are plenty of videos, which I have been watching. However if anyone has experience using both apps, especially in conjunction with one another, I would love to hear from them.

What do you mean by "workflow"? Is this a Logos feature?

I had never heard of Scrivener before I was invited over to the home of one of my seminary professors to help him with some computer problems. That professor was none other than the late Gordon Fee (who died just a couple of months ago). And I had to help him figure something out with Scrivener, which I've long since forgotten. I got him all sorted out, and he was grateful. I've still never encountered anyone who used Scrivener since then, and I've never used it myself. But I thought some of you might be interested to know what good company you keep.
