Paratext 8 USFM version

Question

I see that Paratext 8.0.100.1 comes with USFM v. 2.502. According to http://ubsicap.github.io/usfm/ it looks as if 3.0 is the current USFM version. Why is that version not used for PT 8.0.100.1?

Answer 1

A corrupted version of usfm.sty 3.0.0 has been shared with projects via Send/Receive. The symptom is that the indents on ‘\q1’ and ‘\q2’ have changed.

Unfortunately this is very difficult to fix in Paratext 7 since the latest version is always used.

The best way to protect against this is DO NOT EVER EDIT the usfm.sty file! If you need to change settings for a particular marker you should use the custom.sty file.

To fix this issue you should get a clean version of the file and make some “comment” change using the # sign (note that this should be below the version number) - for instance:
# This is the latest version of the usfm.sty file

Then save the file so that it gets the current date and time and use Send/Receive to send that file to your team.

Answer 2

The USFM 3.0 spec was not finalized in time for it to be included in 8.0. You will have to wait until the next version of Paratext.

Answer 3

I just looked at usfm.sty in My Paratext Projects (for PT7) and it is using USFM 3.0. My Paratext 8 Projects is using USFM 2.502 is that ok?
