If you're switching to Anki from the Flashcard app it's not always the most intuitive product. Here's a quick guide to get your word lists into Anki.

  1. Create your word list in Logos and Print/Export to Excel
  2. Delete any unnecessary columns so you have a column of lemma and a column of the corresponding definitions
  3. Save the file as Unicode Text (.txt)
  4. Close Excel (you won't be able to open and change the new file while it is still open)
  5. Find that Unicode file and save it with UTF-8 encoding (see image below)
  6. In Anki create a new deck or select the desk you want the word in and File -> Import.
