As Daniel said, you don't want to use PDF as the source text. Since he had to have generated the PDF out of something else, you should build off of that original document. The main thing you'll need to do is convert from the encoding it uses (Codepage 874 possibly) to Unicode. You can use uconv (from http://www.crosswire.org/ftpmirror/pub/sword/utils/win32/ ) or possibly iconv to convert from CP-874 (or whatever) to UTF-8. Then lay the verses out in a format like $$$Gen 1:1 first verse $$$Gen 1:2 second verse etc. and run it through imp2vs to make the module for testing. Then send the source file (what you feed to imp2vs) to me and I'll update the module on the site. --Chris _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel
