What do I need to do to prevent Paratext's built in PDF generator from starting a new page with every \mt# marker? At least that's what seems to be triggering the unwanted behaviour... A sample of my Bible Module follows:

\b \p \bd Gospel\bd*
\p \it Mak 13:33-37\it*
\ref MRK 13:33-37

\mt3 Second Sunday of Advent
\p \bd First reading: \bd* \it Aesaea 40:1-5,9-11\it*

The PDF generator will start a new page with "Second Sunday of Advent", but that wastes a LOT of page space.

Any help appreciated!

"PrintDraft" was basically a slimmed down, non-configurable version of PTXprint. It's also been removed from Paratext for a while, which makes one wonder what version of Paratext you're on.

There might be a way to do what you want inside of PrintDraft, but it's likely the real solution is to either:

1) Use PTXprint which, while a little complicated to set up, is much more configurable, or

2) Use \ms# markers rather than \mt# ones

Logically #2 makes sense to me--why would you consider weekly divisions the title to an entire "book" rather than major section divisions?

Thanks mnjames—the \ms# markers were what I needed.

I use Linux, and until very recently PT 8. However, it stopped loading, so I've begun using PT 9.0. Eagerly anticipating PT 10! As for PTXprint, I haven't had good luck with it processing my 'modules'...

PrintDraft uses xetex (which in turn uses ptx2pdf macros) to do the printing to pdf in Paratext. Presumably, PT ... be able to run nice looking drafts straight from PrintDraft.
