Convert English Version for the Deaf to PBB

I would like to convert English Version for the Deaf to PBB in my Logos system. I'm a Deaf pastor and preaches to a Deaf audience. English is their second language and I would like to use this version with my people. I also would like to copy and paste into the PowerPoint easily using Logos than copying from PDF to PowerPoint. I tried to read some information on making PBB for Bibles on wiki and forums and it seems all complicated with me. I have 3 jobs and don't have enough time to figure this out. I'm wondering if anyone of you could try this converting this BIble from PDF to Word that I could compile in my Logos PBB? I uploaded only NT for now. You could find entire Bible on the World Translation Center website. Thanks for your time reading this. If you could help me out, I'm eternally indebted to you.

Brian, but I would be happy to help, however before I proceed I need to verify the copyright status and permissions to use/convert, do you have a link to website it is hosted on, thx

One these are sorted, it will take me a few weeks to process as I work as a delivery driver, were you wishing the footnotes also (more work) or just the Bible text

I also presume you are looing for PB for Logos 4, and not Logos3/Libronix, as I no longer have v3 installed

Dominic and Brian,

it looks like the license agreement is found here:

Thanks Paul, found that, and also the "May be distributed without modification in electronic form for non-commercial use" bit, as we need to modify the text to PB it I have emaoled them asking for their consent - time will tell if they are favourable or not.

DominicM,

Wow. Thanks very much for being willing to do this. I only need Bible text only. Footnotes aren't necessary. Yes, I use Logos 4. I will be happy with Bible texts that comes with name of the book, chapter, and verse only.

Again, thanks very much. I hope the translation center will respond back speedily with approval as I won't be distributing it anywhere except for my church.

I was browsing the English Version for the Deaf PDF file. I notice that there are some pages missing. I wonder if the Translation Center withheld pages for some reason. However, I do find a complete Easy-to-Read Version that was based on English Version for the Deaf. ERV doesn't have missing pages. So, is it possible to compile that one (Easy-to-Read Version) than English Version for the Deaf?

Hi Dominic,

I too am involved in Deaf ministry and am curious to know what response you received from the publisher?

Thanks,

Michael

That's a shame, but not unexpected, I suppose.
