Font setting and copying verses

Good morning. I have had Logos 5 and now version 6 and have set the font to Times New Roman in preferences. I have a MacBook Air and use Evernote for Mac. But when I copy and paste to Evernote the font changes to Helvetica from Times New Roman. I cannot find anywhere in Logos why this is happening. I am highlighting text and hitting control C and then in Evernote hitting control V. In addition, I just tried using the copy feature to copy and paste into Microsoft Word and the format font is now Calibri and not the Times new Roman font that I have selected in preferences.

Does anyone have any suggestions? God bless and Merry Christmas.

I can only speculate, but I'd assume that Evernote as well as Microsoft Word have a standard/default formatting and convert pasted text to this (I have seen a screenshot from a Mac that seems to indicate you can paste with keeping the source formatting by using another key combination)

I just tried using the copy feature to copy and paste into Microsoft Word and the format font is now Calibri and not the Times new Roman font that I have selected in preferences.

In MS Word, when you paste text, you can then choose if you want to keep or loose the formatting (you can also set up the default behavior you prefer in Word preferences). After you paste in Word, you'll notice a little clipboard icon appear at the end of your pasted text. Click on that: if you want to keep all the formatting, choose "Keep Source Formatting," if you want to paste it in the default font of your document choose "Keep Text Only," clicking "Merge Formatting" does a bit of both (trial and error is the only way to see how Word decides to do what it does, as far as I can tell).

(I don't use Evernote and can't comment on what happens there.)

It seems to be a Logos issue and not a Word or Evernote issue - I have the same thing. I also use Accordance Bible software and the source font and size when I paste is different from what Logos produces in a copy and paste. Accordance pastes what I asked it to paste (Helvetica Neue size 11) while in Logos I have it set to Helvetica Neue in the Logos preferences, but it pastes it as Times New Roman size 11 in Word and Helvetica 12 in Evernote, while pastes from Accordance are Helvetica Neue size 11 in both programs. First world problem, but it would be nice to figure out what I can do so I don't always have to click "Match destination formatting" in MS Word. Blessings.
