• Enter your email and press Send password reset email — the link works once, for 60 minutes.

Signed in? Your project is waiting in the typesetting tool.

• Export your project from Paratext — the whole folder is best, because it brings the word lists and key terms.
• Press Choose files — the Open Files window opens. Go to your scripts folder and click your book, here Project1.SFM. Hold Ctrl (⌘ on a Mac) to pick several.

Choose files: from the Open Files window to “received”.

Or choose a whole folder

Correction done in SFM

The tool checks your books against the standard SFM format. If it tidied any markers, it asks whether to use the corrected book. Every word of your text stays the same.

Figures found in your SFM

If your books ask for pictures with \fig, the tool asks whether to put them in the PDF.

Your book is received

Other questions you may be asked

• Which project? — for loose SFM files. Pick one, or type a new name (letters, digits, - and _).
• “…” already exists — Add to it replaces books with the same name, Replace it starts again, Keep it cancels.

• Read what the check will do — the reports change nothing; the check fixes only markup, spacing and punctuation, never a translated word.
• Press Yes, go ahead → — the Spelling report, Key terms and Typeset check run one after another.
• Wait for “Check complete!” — about a minute or two for a New Testament. Then press Continue →.

The check groups what it found into cards. Blockers come first. Nothing changes without your say-so.

• 👍 Approve — accept the suggested fix. Approve all does the whole card.
• Leave as is — keep the original line.
• ✏️ Manual edit — open the line yourself, fix it and press 💾 Save.

Front pages

The Front pages tab sets the pages in front of the complete book, as a printed Bible has them: the cover, the title page, the publication data, the credits and an introduction. Each one is switched on separately.

• Type the title and sub-title — they stand on the cover, the title page and the publication data page.
• Cover page and Title page — switch them on and pick a border for each. Add a logo for the title page if you have one.
• Publication data — the heading, the copyright, a licence logo, the licence text, and the foot of the page (contact, edition, ISBN, printer).
• Credits page — the credits for pictures and maps.
• Introduction — your own text, as many pages as it takes. A line starting with # is a heading.

Filling the Front pages tab. The names and texts here are samples.

Contents

• Switch on Add a table of contents page — it needs two or more books.

• Choose what each line shows — tick \toc1, \toc2 or \toc3 and order them with the arrows. The page number the book begins on follows.
• Press Go to Typeset 🖨️.

The Type tab and your own font

• Press Submit for review → — when you have read every book.

Your front pages in the proof

When you open Check the pages, the complete book shows in this order: first the front page (the cover), then the table of contents, and then the actual contents, starting with the first book on page 1.

The front pages in Check the pages. Sample title and texts.
