Hi Folks, try as I might I only seem to be able to send Bible verses over to Word for Mac in one font - of course I can change it once I'm over in Word but I'd like to have Logos 7 send it in a particular font - is that possible and if so, how do I do it?  Thanks ahead of time

    Hi Tim

    If I want a copy of the text in a particular font I set that font in the document and then use 'copy' from the panel and cmd+alt+shift+v to paste into the document.

    I don't think there is a way to choose a font in advance from the Logos end.

    You can create a Copy Bible Verse style in Logos and specify which styles in MS Word you want to paste into. 

    For example, I have a Style in MS Word called "Sermon Quote." It's exactly how I want Bible verses formatted in my sermon notes. 

    In Copy Bible Verses I created a Style called "Sermon Quotes" where I specified that I wanted verses copied from here to be pasted into my "Sermon Quote" style in Word. 

    This wiki page is particularly helpful - https://wiki.logos.com/Copy_Bible_Verses#Copy_Bible_Verses_Syntax

    I'm pretty sure it works the same in Word for Mac.

    Thanks, Richard, I did not know we could do this. Very helpful. Richard's method is effective if what you want in Word is always the same font. Otherwise, you can also change your resource font on the fly by using the "set default Resource font to fontname" in the command box, do your copying and then run the command again to your previous font.

    I didn't know you could do that! Thanks, Francis.

    You can actually just type "set font" (easier to remember) and the command will be invoked in the drop-down suggestion list.

    I would like to high light a text and copy in the following format, using Tempus Sans ITC in 12 point.  Could someone show me how? No space between reference 

    Proverbs 30:21–23 (ESV)

    21 Under three things the earth trembles; under four it cannot bear up: 22 a slave when he becomes king, and a fool when he is filled with food; 23 an unloved woman when she gets a husband, and a maidservant when she displaces her mistress.

    using Tempus Sans ITC in 12 point.  Could someone show me how? No space between reference 

    %NoFootnotes
    %NoCitation
    %ForEachVerseStyle=CBV
    %HeaderStyle = CBV
    %NoParFormatting

    =Header
    <p><b>[ShortPassageRef] ([Version]) </b></p>

    =ForEachVerse
    [VerseNum] [VerseText]

    Substitute CBV with your style name. Font Size can't be set, so it should follow current size in your document.
