Printing from Sermon Builder

Hello all! I have searched through the forums, so I know it has been a known issue in the past, but wanted to know if a fix has ever been developed. I have been building some sermons in "Sermon Builder" lately, but have noticed that trying to print them results in extremely large font. Is there a way to customize the print formatting to make it a bit more reasonable?

I have tried exporting to Microsoft Word though it usually exports a little goofy, resulting in even more work on the back end to reformat it to look right.

If I need to go back to just using Word to create the sermons it is fine, but it sure would be nice to use the built-in feature on Logos. I find it to be a remarkably helpful too - just not for printing the actual notes I develop! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Blessings!

    bumping for attention as this has gotten no response

    Thanks for the bump, MJ!

    What I do is to export it to Word as you do. And yes, the font is crazy big. Here is what I do:

    1 - Highlight everything. (CMD+A) on a Mac. I assume CTRL+A on Windows).

    2 - Then I go up to the font box, were you can type in a different font size. Don't use that UNLESS you want all the fonts to be exactly the same.

    3 - Otherwise, look to the right of that box, with the big "A" with a small up arrow, and the small "A" with a down arrow.

    4  - Use the small "A" to start reducing text. There reason to use this button is it will shrink text but not all to the same size. It will stay relative to each other. Try going down 2-3 sizes (clicks) and see what you think. You can always go up at the same time, provided everything is still highlighted. Mess with it until you find a size that works for you.

    If any of this does not make sense, reply here and I will try to help more.
