Copy Bible Verses format bug

I'm sorry if this has been posted before, but I didn't find that it was.  I'm using Beta 6 on Windows XP SP2.  When I copy and pasted fully formatted verses to Word from Isaiah 53 in the NRSV, the poetry indentations are lost.  They show in the Logos window as I would expect, but in Word all lines are fully left-justified. 

This feature works correctly for me in Logos 3.

    This is another bug with Copy Bible Verse. I copied to PowerPoint using Quotation, BHS for 2 Sam. 6. The Hebrew text is good, although I'll have to pick a different font, but the English reference is mixed across two lines - it starts with the bracket at the "Hebrew" end of the line and then goes to the English end of the same line with the "2 Samuel" and then to the Hebrew end of the next line for the chapter and verse and reference.

    Here's a screen shot. I know mixing languages is tough, but I've got to do something to make it make sense, so this tool either has to do what I'll have to do or not try to tell me it will do it.

    ESV indents that passage when there are no indents!

    Chris ~  Does it paste correctly using Microsoft Word? If it does, I'll report the problem with pasting into other programs.   ~ Thanks, Melissa
