[sword-devel] New Spanish Bible from DOCX to OSIS

[David Haslam]

Correction: Vince actually sent the message in February!
Could it have been held up pending approval by the mailing list manager?

Aside: Since I began collaborating with Vince on the text development, we've been through 12 iterations of module test builds.
When the module is submitted, it will be the fruit of a great deal of work with contributions from Chile, Colombia & Cheshire.

Best regards,

David

>> Hello,

>> This is my first email to the list. Thank you for all your work in providing the SWORD project. Eloquent is my main Bible app, which I love (despite the somewhat frequent crashes), and I'm looking forward to contributing my extremely limited time and talent to help where I can.

>> I'm the tech guy for the loose group of missionaries and national pastors who promote the Reina-Valera 1865 Spanish Bible. We're in the last stages of cleaning up the typographical and orthographical issues in the digital versions up until now, and I'm looking at a DOCX file of the text, originally formatted for print (and the reformatting to produce VPL needs a lot of help).

>> We want to export the RV1865 text in OSIS and then into other formats for other platforms, but since I'm a complete newbie as far as XML schematics and encodings, I need someone to hold my hand and walk me through the process. I'm not a complete idiot when it comes to technology (I run multiple websites and actually run my own Debian VPS), but I need as much help as anyone would be willing to provide.
