Dear Johan,<br>
<br>
Basically all these features are expressing presumably some sort of
meaning, no? You would want to encode the text in a fashion that the
meaning is actually expressed and then leave the various frontends to
choose the graphic method of choice to represent this.<br>
<br>
E.g. "red text" is often used for Jesus' own direct speech, but to get
the best out of our software you would want to encode such direct
quotes not as fontcolor red, but as quote of Jesus.<br>
<br>
The best way to achieve this is via OSIS.<br>

have created a bible
module for The SWORD Project for Windows from an IMP / GBF UTF-8 text
file,
using imp2vs, e.g.<br>
<br>
$$$Gen 1:1<br>
In the beginning ...<br>
<br>
My goal is to make this same module available for the iPhone and
SwordReader.<br>
<br>
The bible module has inter alia the following within the text:<br>
<br>
Hebrew letters for the Name of the Father and the Son.<br>
Characters with diacritical markers (e.g. h with a dot below, b with a
line
below, etc. - "special characters")<br>
Blue colored text<br>
Italics<br>
Super text<br>
Bold<br>
<br>
The above (except blue text) show 100% correctly in The SWORD Project
for
Windows, but superscript and the blue text don’t show in Xiphos.<br>
<br>
I have copied this module to iPhone and the Hebrew and the special
characters,
bold, italics and superscript show correctly, but the colored text
doesn’t
show, just black text.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;" lang="EN-ZA">Similarly
in
SwordReader, except the Hebrew and special characters just show blocks,
probably just a font issue. The same with SlideBible (it is a pity the
font
cannot be changed though).<br>

module to work
in the iPhone though.<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></font></p>

am using <FS>

can’t
find a way to change the color of the text. I have tried <font

shows the text in blue. Using these tags to change the color in the
.config
file work correctly though.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

don’t work for bold and italics.<br>
<br>
Question: How do I change the color of the text for the iPhone please?<br>
<br>
I have downloaded all the utilities and have read the posts, but I am
at a
loss.<br>
<br>
All and any help is appreciated - but please note that I am not a
programmer, bt
can easily enough add / change tags.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
