Create Pages Style Based Copy Bible Verse Style

Kevin A. Purcell

I love the Copy Bible Verse tool and use it when I copy verses to Word. I have a style set up that pastes the text using a Word Style for all Bible quotes so they stand out when I preach.

I've considered switching to Pages for Mac, but Logos Help doesn't mention anything about Pages Styles. Is it possible to create a Pages Style CBV Style? If so, how.

I can't see any difference with the results from the style setting in CBV. However I prefer to have a style set in my Pages document and paste into that style using cmd+option+Shift+V.

Yeah but that’s not as quick and simple as copy paste into word using a defined word style. This is probably a weakness of Pages which gets little development but I thought  I’d ask in case I was missing something.

Rumour has it that the 'included' apps are getting a major rework in the next version of MacOS and iOS so don't give up. ;-)
