How do I fix up of Greek quotes in Word docs so Logos will properly display in PBB files.

Peter Banks

I have been migrating my favorite version of Calvin institutes from PDF to Word DOCX to Logos PBB.

I am about 80% through book 1.

Moving  PDF text to Word works great the Greek displays properly no problems.

However Logos mangles the Greek when I compile the Word Docx file. I noticed that both Word and Logos support a number of common Greek fonts but not the Koine Medium font the pdf used. I suspect that the font used is a True type font what needs to be converted. Where the Greek references represent only maybe 1% or 2% of the total text. It makes sense to clear away the mangled text and just reenter the text in one of the commonly supported Greek fonts. I have 2 questions

Which of the common fonts will work the best?

How do I determine which keys to map to which greek characters?

You will want to use one of the Unicode fonts (ex: SBL Greek). If you search the forums, I believe there is a macro for Windows that can find the Greek substitute the font for the correct one.
