Bug: PBB Compiling and Rendering in XP vs. W7

I have compiled the same resource in Windows XP running in a virtual machine under Linux and also in my native Windows 7 installation on my my laptop using the same files. Both installations have the same fonts installed and in my Logos 4 settings, the same Greek and Hebrew fonts are selected as the default.

As you can see from the screenshots below, the XP installation rendered the Hebrew beautifully, but used a different Greek font. My Windows 7 installation did not render the Hebrew at all, but got the Greek font right.

Do you have the same Greek/Hebrew font selected in Tools > Program Settings on both installations of Logos?

Yes, SBL Hebrew and GentiumAlt on both machines and the same fonts were used in the source document.

I've found that changing the Default Font to Gentium (not the Greek Font) will change the Greek in my personal book from an unknown font to Gentium. The English text in the same book is still English, although the font looks slightly different.

In my case, I had copied the Greek text from a Logos 4 resource to Word (which retained the Gentium font), then compilied the PB from Word into L4. This was in Windows 7.

I know development is looking into font issues. I'll make sure they're aware of the issues reported here. Thank you.
