Apparatus Font for Majority Text and Papyrus Symbols

I'm having a terrible time trying to copy and paste from the na28 apparatus, or Metzger's textual commentary, or anything really and having the p or the m show up in Word looking like they ought to look.

Didn't there used to be a LibronixApparatusFont or some such thing?

I know I'm not explaining it very well but I really like the gothic looking p that ought to show up when I cite p46 so it is obviously the Chester Beatty papyrus and not some kind of page 46.  Also the majority text symbol.  How can I replicate those in MS Word?

Thanks!

    That character may not be encoded in the resources correctly, which may be why it is not copying to Word properly. You can copy it from here: 𝔓

    Word should automatically set the font correctly, but if you need to choose one, try Cambria Math or Segoe UI Symbol.

    Majority Text symbol: 𝔐

    BTW, this seems to be working just fine for me. What is the support info for the resource you're copying from? What version of Word are you using, and which OS?

    This seems to be a case of Logos fonts not available in MS Word

    Yes, but some time ago Faithlife decided to deinstall all those fonts from users' machines and to embed them into the application - means, they work in Logos but are not available outside of it unless you install them. This support page may help you: https://www.logos.com/support/logos6/windows/missing-fonts 

    It seems you are looking for LogosSymbolUnicode - but if in doubt, just get all that's free from there and install it.

    Have joy in the Lord! Smile

    LLS:NA28APPARATUS 2016-06-06T17:25:59Z NA28APPARATUS.logos4

    Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010 Version: 14.0.7166.5000 (32-bit)

    This is how it looks pasted.  The P and the M are pasted as Cambria Math.

    Ok, I found the LibronixApparatusFont that has the P and M symbols I need.  Thanks!
