Paul Jackson Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 What's the simplest work-around to copying a citation with superscript verse numbers? I read that the clipboard can't keep superscript formatting. Is that a Mac thing or an accordance thing because I'm sure I used to copy verses out of e-Sword with superscript verse numbers on my PC? Also I find that when copying as citation it leaves the first verse number out. Have I got a setting wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 It is a Mac thing that the clipboard deosn't retain the superscript style. The first verse number is deliberately omitted from a citation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorinda H. M. Hoover Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 It is a Mac thing that the clipboard doesn't retain the superscript style. Interesting. I can copy and paste text containing superscripts in other apps (and between other apps) and the superscripts remain intact on pasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Jackson Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 It is a Mac thing that the clipboard deosn't retain the superscript style. Really? I can copy text including superscript from a Pages document to a Word document without any problem on my Mac. The first verse number is deliberately omitted from a citation. Why? Why would I want every other verse number in the quote but not the first verse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not understand why you say it is a Mac clipboard problem. I can copy superscripts from Pages to either Word or to Mail with no problem. In fact, I can copy from BibleWorks running under Parallels and paste into Pages or Mail and the superscripts are retained. So it appears that the Mac clipboard does support superscript copy. I have already put this (and some other things) into a request for new capabilities - and this feature would be HIGH on my list, since one of the most important things I do is copy text into Pages or Keynote, and having to manually superscript verse numbers is time consuming.....
