One further point should be made. Custom normalization is still a Normalization form. It's just that the combining classes for each Hebrew codepoint are not the canonical ones defined by the Unicode Consortium. They are clearly specified if you know where to look. They won't be supported by li

The purpose of normalization was for the sake of search. Only when the search index and the search request are normalized to the same form can a result be found. It doesn’t matter if the normalized form is not readable. If SWORD (or JSword) normalizes both the same, then it doesn’t matter what

Good question, Tom. Assuming that the Latin script part of the source text actually required normalization to NFC, and that at least some of the Biblical Hebrew should not be converted to NFC, you'd build the module using the -N switch of osis2mod, after first applying a script to the source tex

These v11ns are not in the sources because we are still researching.  But since these have been double checked to printed editions, I highly doubt whatever 'errors' you see are actually errors in the v11n, but rather a bad source text.  I am sorry for speculating, but I know these v11ns were checke

Hi Greg, One area where it might turn out to be useful is for the search features of front-end apps. It could be important to know that the underlying module text is not NFC. That's not to lay down a requirement as to how search features should be designed, but at least to provide the informati
