Hi Paratext Community,

I am currently working on a Study Bible based on the ESV Global Study Bible, which we are localizing.

At present, the base Bible text is already available in Paratext, while the extended footnotes, study notes, and sidebars are maintained in Word documents.

I would like to know if there is a recommended way to migrate/import this study content from Word into Paratext, particularly the extended footnotes and sidebars.

Is there any automated or semi-automated workflow, script, or tool available to convert the Word content into the appropriate USFM/Paratext format and align it with the existing Bible text?

If anyone has experience with a similar Study Bible migration or localization project, I would greatly appreciate your guidance, recommendations, or examples of an efficient workflow.

Thank you!
