Print edition is three volumes (because of binding limitations), and there’s no print edition of the large print version, since it would have run to five volumes.

I’ve also added First Presidency Christmas devotionals to the Collected Talks.

The JSON versions of the Old and New Testaments are now available.

Also, I’ve compared all five standard works against the text on LDS.org and have fixed dozens of typos, a list of which you can see in the README changelog. (I had mistakenly assumed that my source text had been corrected, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.) None of the typos were doctrinal in nature — they’re all minor typographical fixes — but I recommend updating nonetheless.

]]> Scriptures in Word https://bencrowder.net/blog/2016/scriptures-in-word/ https://bencrowder.net/blog/2016/scriptures-in-word/ Sat, 30 Jan 2016 12:00:00 GMT At someone’s request, I recently put together Microsoft Word editions of the LDS standard works, for use as study aids. (The person who requested it is using Word to highlight, annotate, and add footnotes/endnotes.) Verse numbers are included.

Process (for the curious)

I downloaded an SQLite version of the scriptures and wrote a Python script to extract the text in the right order, with markers for the headings. I then copied and pasted the whole thing into Word.

In Word, I did some wildcard-based find-and-replacing to remove the heading markers and apply the appropriate styles, and then I added a hanging indent so the verse numbers are less obtrusive.
