A. Copy¶
B. Paste¶
3. Format¶
It should keep the bold elements bold when you paste, but you’ll have to make them glow, so you can check their bolding then. The simple rule here is whatever is bolded in the liturgy (for the congregation to read together) gets bolded and emphasized in Proclaim.

A. Bold¶
Bold lines by using the following button:
B. Emphasize¶
Emphasize lines using the Empahsize Text button at the top of the text box:
