Verse copy & paste formatting help needed
I have been using copy/paste to word for several years & loved it. Suddenly about a month or so ago, when I copied & pasted a passage, the formatting was different. I am the only one using this so I know I didn't make the change. I have read the manual & tried tweaking on my own, but there is one thing I can't figure out. How can I get the verse number to be at the margin and the verse be indented? This is how it used to do automatically. (The verse number was actually indented a little as well.)
Example:
1 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham as he
was returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,
2 to whom also Abraham apportioned a tenth part of all the spoils, was first of all, by the
translation of his name, king of righteousness ...
Another change is that new paragraphs were indicated by the verse number being bold. Now I can make all verse numbers bold or no verse numbers bold, but not only the beginning of a new paragraph.
While I'm at it, it used to be easy to see which verse I was looking at, but now I have to select the text to figure it out. Sure wish I could put it back like it was.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Kathy
Which Bible are you copying from?
And which version of Logos are you using? I ask because you have posted this in the Logos 5 forum - with Logos 7 being the currently supported version.

I use the NASB95. I'm pretty sure that I have Logos version 5 with the version 6 engine upgrade. I am a homemaker who is passionate in Bible study and teaching and all this frequent upgrading is an unnecessary expense for me.

I expect - but am not sure - that the changes you are seeing relate to re-releasing the NASB95 resource so it has a "paragraph" view as opposed to a "one verse per line" view. This has raised a number of issues including changes to the way text is copied using the Copy Bible Verses tool.
As per https://community.logos.com/forums/p/140455/913881.aspx#913881 (and the thread as a whole provides some context if you are interested) Faithlife are going to re-release the original version in August while making the new one available as well. I expect that this will restore the behaviour you are looking for.

I understand but want to mention a couple of things:
- Logos 5 and 6 are no longer supported products
- A free Logos 7 (core functionality) upgrade is available at https://www.logos.com/product/136022/basic

I was wondering if you or anyone else might know how you can change the font for the Copy Bible text feature. I do everything in Times New Roman and though the copy text is great I have to touch it again to change the font in all my documents. Any suggestions?

Yes, I'm pleased to say I learned how to do that. click on "Tools" at the top pf the page. Under "Utilities", click "Program Settings". Scroll down to "Text Display". The first one listed is "Default Resource Text". Beside of it is the word, "Default" with a drop down arrow. Click on the word, "Default" and choose your preferred font.

Thanks. I downloaded version 7 and look forward to the re-release of the original version of NASB in August. I'm sure that was the source of these issues I have been having.
Thanks for your help.

You are very welcome.
Hopefully the re-release will address the issues. If not, please post back
