While working on Hebrew bible display in And Bible an Israeli contact asked if the Delitzsch Hebrew NT is available. I can't see anything in the CrossWire Sword modules nor in the Xiphos module list so I thought I would ask. These are the links I was given regarding the Delitzsch Hebrew NT: http

Slightly off-topic. Has anyone found a suitable electronic copy of any of the Yiddish translations of the Bible (including the NT)? For details of the language, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yiddish_language I put some notes and comments in a topic in the Go Bible Forum, which may help to gi

Don't relevant, because if nobody use it (again - from what I know) I think it's a waste of time working about creating a module for it. I think while we have 1 good Delitchz module, then maybe we can create the others. But as you said, this is a free software, so nobody

PDF files with embedded custom fonts can be a pain for extracting text. Have you checked document properties | fonts to see what these are? Also, some PDF files are encrypted to prevent copying of content. If printing is allowed, it might sometimes work to intercept the printing output stream. Y
