  4. Embedded Bible Translators' notes (Deluxe) are not displayed when the notes tag is inside another tag like in Mat 4:4 NHEB.
  5. Parallel page up/down skips a line of text due to sticky header.
  6. Copy Settings (Premium/Deluxe) bugs:
    1. Complete book name is not properly remembered as it always follows Place verse ref at the end
    2. Copy and Copy range will exclude the translation name when Retain paragraph and poetry is checked
    3. Copy and Copy range may retain CSS and JavaScript when Copy setting Retain paragraph and poetry is set, e.g. GW and BIB+.
  7. The Word or eSword RTF tables break when there is a \pard tag.
