fyi… here's the .docx that I was trying to import.
1031.01 B'reisheet.docx.zip
Logos4.log file (4.3 SR-2) has: "System.Xml.XmlException: 'r' is undeclared namespace. Line 2, position 3886." while processing LDLS4.Panels.PersonalBookBuilderPanel.OfficeOpen.Converter.ConvertToLogosXml.ConvertNotesPart
fyi… here's the .docx that I was trying to import. 1031.01 B'reisheet.docx.zip
Using Word 2010 (in Windows 7) to open docx file has similar error for line 2:

Darren -
I received the same warning when trying to open the .docx file. After saving a copy, however, I was able to build the book:
Here is my copy of your file: 3441.B’reisheet.docx
Thanks! I think I realize what's going on now. I'm using NeoOffice, and it's not formatting my .docx file properly. Your version worked just fine. Mine still crashes. Thanks for your help!

Are you sure its NeoOffice? Have you tried another document? Try creating one with just a few words in it. I don't use that software, so I can't be sure one way or the other.
Yes, I'm sure. I tried creating a doc with 1 heading & a paragraph & it did the same thing.
My advice after fighting with NeoOffice for some weeks is: switch to LibreOffice. It's basically the same program, but with fewer bugs and far better documentation.
Thanks for the advice fgh [:)]
Ok - I've discovered that the Personal Book Builder is pretty much worthless for me. Here's my dilemma:
So… Unless someone has a suggestion, I don't have any way to utilize the Personal Book Builder.
I've attached another sample .docx file as an example of a typical document I would like to add as a Personal Book.
3566.Elul - The King Is In The Field.docx

Well, that certainly crashed Logos for me too. And trying a few things in LibreOffice kept crashing it. However, see if this doesn't work:
That worked for me. The downside is that all the heading styles, and some paragraph breaks, disappear, so you'll then have to redo them, but that seemed to work too.
How was this document done? Was it created as .docx and worked upon as .docx? What I do is that I always work in LibreOffice's native .odt format, and only save in .docx just before I compile. If I need to do more work, I go back to the .odt and do it there. If I copy and paste from the internet, or download something that needs to be worked on, I start by resaving as .docx and trying to compile it, so that if it crashes or won't compile or looks really odd and I have to clean the code through .rtf conversion, I can do it directly, and not after I've already wasted time on formatting it. Plus, if I work on something bigger than an article, I always duplicate and rename, and usually try to compile, the file after each major step in the process, so that I don't have to start all over from the beginning if something goes wrong. I learnt from experience that that's not fun at all...
I tried to compile the book, and it crashed too. When I opened the .docx file in word, it said "cannot fire event" or something dumb like that. I saved the .docx file with a different name and viola! it compiled. I will include the new .docx file for you below. NOTE: The logos servers will add numbers to the file name, but I don't think it should give you a problem.
2671.Elul.docx
fgh - I appreciate your suggestions. However, converting via TextEdit will destroy my doc (page numbering, footnotes, etc.) like you mentioned, but there is no way to fix those once they are broken.
Also - this doc was created in NeoOffice, so I'm not sure what's going on. But right now, I don't have a viable solution.

alabama24 - I appreciate it. However, I should have to send you my files to convert for me every time I need to build (or recompile) a Personal Book.
Still not sure what to do at this point.
sorry, should be "I SHOULDN'T have to…"

Have you just tried renaming the .docx file in LibreOffice? When I opened your document in word, it also gave me a warning about the file name. Like I said earlier, I did not do anything to your document other than change the name and then save it.
When I try to resave in LibreOffice, it crashes (on save) and does not produce a file.
Sorry! I am glad that I have Word! Thankfully I was able to buy it with an educational discount. I only used it to "finalize" the formatting on my papers in Seminary. Now, I only use it to work with PBB. It would be great if Apple created a new version of pages which saved files in a .docx format.
It would be wonderful if Pages could deal with Hebrew & RTL text. If you have any RTL inline text at all, your whole paragraph explodes. :-(
It's actually pretty ridiculous. I have 5 (yes, FIVE) Word Processor applications on my Mac and they all fail miserably in one area or another.
If a PC user were to say the same thing, everybody would assume it's not the applications, but the OS.... [8-|]
