Brian Kinzel Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Can you tell me why when I copy from the Russian Bible (RUSB module) the text is pasted in the target document as the geneva font? And is there any way of changing this? I have the display set as Times New Roman, but it still ends up as Geneva, not my favorite. thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Bennett Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 If you're using Word, after pasting, a little icon displays at the end of the pasted text. Clicking it and selecting 'match destination formatting' will match the font/size/style at the insertion point. Also, since this Bible text doesn't have any formatting (bold, italics, etc.) you can also use Paste Special…Unformatted Text in Word (shft-cmd-opt v in other word processors) and it will match the insertion point.

JonathanHuber Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 You might consider using a text-expander utility to spell it out. I've seen that acronym many times and had no idea what it meant either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Kinzel Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share Posted March 19, 2012 Rick, Yes, I do use Word, and yes, I am continually using the "match destination formatting" button. I actually am trying to find out if I can get Accordance to just use Time New Romans font for the Russian text. I do this for other texts, and it copies as the text I select. For some reason unknown to me, the Russian comes in different. Any tips for fixing this in Accordance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Bennett Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) In tool modules Accordance will retain the display font when copying, but in Unicode Bibles this isn't possible. The developers are looking into some other issues related to font designation when copying text, I can forward this on to see if there's any relation. For now, the best option is to continue to use 'Match destination…' Edited March 19, 2012 by Rick Bennett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Kinzel Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Rick, thanks. Guess with Russian I am stuck with extra step of changing the font. I just found this strange, since everything else (including texts) I copy from Accordance stays in the font I have designated. I would think it worthwhile to forward this to the developers, since this seems to be anomaly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
