Double or Triple Space Hebrew Export (Mac especially)

Jim Darlack

A frequent question I get from students at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary:

How do I export Greek/Hebrew text in double or triple spacing for creating worksheets for translation purposes?

So, is there a way to export in double/triple space? Using the print/export feature would be particularly important for Mac users who are stuck with MSOffice (which does not handle RTL languages well at all). Otherwise, they could copy and paste and then triple space within the word processor.

There are other software packages that allow for a quick formatted export with relative ease. Surely, something similar can be done with Logos . . .

If not, a tweak to the interface would be welcome for students at GCTS.

Using the information I found here I set the input source to Hebrew and the Body Style in Pages to 2.6 line spacing.

I copied from Logos a  section from a Hebrew text and pasted it so as to use the document style Cmd+Alt+V

This is the result...

 

I seem to be able to adduct the line spacing to as much as I want (I got bored at 4.5)

I hope this helps your mac users.
