I find clippings very useful for electronic content, but how do I add a clipping from (shock horror!) a printed resource? Quite a few books I use are not available electronically.
Not easily unless I am missing something. You could OCR it; make a word doc (new format) and make it a personal book and then add it to clippings. I do not think you can add pics to clippings so it must be in text before you can add it. That is what I think but I am still a new kid on the block. I guess this is not much help.
Glad it's not just me. [:)]
Unfortunately, not the way you would like.
Here is another thread from some time ago: http://community.logos.com/forums/p/32861/245617.aspx#245617
If anyone was able to figure it out, it would be MJ!
you could add it to a docx, then create a PB, then you should be able to add it to a clipping.
EDIT: i get repeatable crashes when deleting the clipping in 4.5a (see this post)

Yes I think this is the only way to do it.
It's a pretty laborious process, but here goes:
If you have a scanner, scan it with OCR (optical character recognition) option if you've got that option built in to your scanning software (e.g., Adobe Acrobat can do it); otherwise take it to a copy center that can scan to PDF (with OCR) for you.
Then convert the text to a Word .docx format either by copying and pasting from the OCR'ed PDF file or using PDF converter software such as Able2Doc.
Then build it into a Logos Personal Book (follow instructions here)
Finally, you can select it and Add a clipping.
You need to ask yourself whether this is worth the trouble.
