First, very best wishes to all Visual Liturgy users for this Christmas Season.<\/p>\n
Second, a tip relating to copying and pasting text. A user recently asked how to avoid excessive margins when copying text from Visual Liturgy to a word processor or DTP program.<\/p>\n
There are several things you can do. I’m not suggesting you use all of these, but consider them as a set of tools that will enable you to get the best possible result.<\/p>\n
First, have a look in Edit – Preferences – Services. Here you can enable or disable certain features of copied text, including Preserve Wide Margin. If your priority is just to get the unadorned text, try unchecking both Preserve Wide Margin and Include Styles in RTF<\/p>\n
Second, you can amend this at the template level. Open the template you normally use and select the detail view. From the Service menu, choose Properties, then Styles. Drop down Detail view and select NoWideMargin.css for a service without the wide left margin<\/p>\n
Third, you can amend this at the item level. Right-click a reading in the service list, and select Service Item Properties. Select Detail view, then Service Text. Check the option As Block Text to remove all indentation. NB I do not normally recommend this option as it may break important formatting, but it is there if you want to do all the formatting in your desktop publishing software.<\/p>\n
If you amend the template, don’t forget to save it with File – Save – As a service template.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
