If you hit Print (Command P), you can then select the sections you want to print and go ahead and print them (or export them to a different format) I believe that it limits you to 100 pages at a time, so you might have to do it in a few batches.

hi, I've spent $32.99 today purchasing the Philemon commentary. I want to print it to read in hard copy. How do I export the book I have bought? Can anyone tell me, please?

Many thanks

the hardback version might have been a cheaper option in the long run.   By the time you print it off. 

Is it available in dead tree?

hi, Jacob, thanks for replying. When I click CTRL+P, I get a more basic menu than that, and can only highlight a few paragraphs at a time. Could that be because I have the basic free version of Logos? I'm loathe to spend more on a subscription at the moment because I feel I've already been stung for $32.99. Lesson learned, I suppose. Buying a book doesn't mean buying a book anymore. It means pay for the privilege of copying and pasting a book paragraph by paragraph in your own time. I might as well employ a typesetter while I'm at it as well to complete my losses. Not your fault, I know - you're being helpful. If they sent me a pdf, I'd be happy to sign a contract to say I won't share of copy it.

I'm not certain what limitation you're running into. I don't have that problem on my end. Logos books are generally designed to work within the environment of the Logos application on a desktop/laptop or the mobile app. In this way, they are actually significantly more valuable than printed books, since you can interact with the text via search, highlights, and hovering over verse references and links to referenced resources. 

In your case, if you are just looking to print a book, that is not the user case that Logos designed this experience for. I'm not certain what the problem of needing to copy and paste so many sections is. You do have to check a lot of boxes manually, so it takes longer than it might seem like it should. But I just confirmed I could save to PDF or Word very large sections of the book, over 50 pages at a time. 

Your use case of preferring printed books is why Lexham Press does still print some of their resources to paperbooks, but for whatever reason they haven't yet gotten there with Philemon. Maybe they plan to bundle with some other commentaries.

I'd encourage you to consider taking advantage of the resource that you did purchase by at least giving it a shot to interact with it digitally on the screen. The reason why Logos is beloved by so many isn't because you can print the book you have but because so many of us have found the digital versions of reference works superior to their dead-tree counterpart.
