I imagine this affects translators in other places too. Could the text in this resource be made copyable for those who use Google Translate to understand it?

Answer 1

I can confirm that you cannot copy the contents of HOTTP pop up. I presume that the copyright holder wanted their material to be protect. There is “Guia para el Uso de la BHS” available in Translator’s Workplace if the translation practitioners in Mexico wanted to consult the apparatus for the BHS. The BHS apparatus is much more daunting to decipher than the HOTTP which I suppose is one of the reasons it was developed. Critical Apparatuses: What and Why (logos.com)
A more readable apparatus is the BHQ that is still being developed but the first 7 volumes are available for purchase. Biblia Hebraica Quinta with Apparatus | BHQ (7 vols.) | Logos Bible Software
