We have been asked whether or not certain segments of BRI Newsletters can be copied, although they are sent as pdf-files. For instance, it may be helpful to take the Bible studies out of the newsletters, reformat them, and use them as Word or WordPerfect files. In this way, they can be used by those giving Bible studies, and they can be passed out to those receiving them.
The answer to this question is: Yes, it can be done. Here is how: After you have opened the BRI Newsletter with Adobe Reader click on “Select” or “Select Text” (depending on the version), block the paragraph that you want to copy, click “Edit” and “Copy” (or right click and click on “Copy to Clipboard”), go to your Word or WordPerfect program, and click “Edit” and “Paste” (or right click and click “Paste”). You should be able to use the document now in your word processing program. Success!
