#- Print Preview... Clicking the Print Preview icon will produce a print and copy and paste friendly window of the page you are looking at. This will allow you to copy and paste to your studies or to print it (this function not available in the alpha release of the product).

#- Current problem with Copy and Paste from the window you are looking at... You should be able to just highlight text in your Passage and Verse View window and do a copy. However it behaves badly when you move over a footnote superscript. __The work around is to: first, find the verse. Next move your mouse to the immediate left of the verse reference number (1.1) and to the right of the left column navigation (1/4 inch space). Then left click and hold down mouse button and drag the mouse down highlighting the desired verses you want to copy, release button. Now do a normal "control C" to copy text to clipboard.
