Love the layout of the greek, nice font and spacing. Very readable and also the bleed through is very minimal. One of the better I have seen.
Very nice Bible! Awesome work!
Great video! I tried to figure this out a while back, but got stuck at saving in XPS format. I must have missed a step. I will give it another try. Thanks Beautiful Bible you came up with.
You can also save it in an XPS format in Adobe as well.

Oh man, now I might be able to do a project I thought I would never be able to do! I'm looking at doing a KJV/WEBSTER Bible merge and update.
Basically I want to take the Webster Bible, change a few things back to the KJV (like the ones you pointed out), and update words that weren't archaic in Webster's day and vulgar words. But I'm gonna retain the Thee's and Thou's etc.
Thank you Pastor! 🙏🏻
I have a idea for a bible I want to have made. NASB95 translation. Single Column. Large 10.5 Font. 12"x12"x3" thick. 4" margins. Interleaf blank page between each book of the bible. This would be for note taking.
I don't even want mine that thick. I want it about 1 1/2 thick. 11x9x1 or 12x10x1.5 I want it THIN.
Thanks, Stephen! Dream Bible = HB-Masoretic with LXX plus Greek NT and 1892, New Testament in Hebrew by Delitzsch. ....
Add in a side column English ESV .... and wide margins - yes... a behemoth... but what a beauty! If there was extra space, add in Modern Hebrew and Syriac versions (but by now this is multi-volumes).... all this in opposite single column parallel pages Greek on right side, Hebrew on left - English in smaller columns on outside edges.
Love it!
Love the idea!
Wow, food for thought.
Definitely a fun project
This is exactly what I needed! The resources and places that can print a bible for me! I’m making my own translation of the Bible on a pages doc and needed to know a company that can print for me! I’ve been looking. Thank you!
Great! Just note that snowfall press has a page limit. Blessings!
What is the max number of pages snowball press will allow?
That's really cool! My only complaint is that the text block appears to be perfect bound. Seems to be a lot of money to have something print and bound only for pages to begin falling out in a short period of time.
Preserve the Word who rebound it for me have a method of reinforcement to increase the longevity of the binding. Alternatively, Norris Book Binding will side stitch it. But it will never be a Smyth sewn binding, you are right. It’s the only downside.
Thank you, great info
I have looked and looked but have not found the format for me. I do appreciate the KJV and would like very much to have it in goatskin and turn it into a premiere Bible.
I've seen some gorgeous leather Bibles
Nice to see you made your own. God bless you
I very badly want a printed edition with the Hebrew Masoretic and Greek Textus Receptus TBS texts set in parallel with an English translation, Ive been trying to think for a while how to do this without spending millions of hours trying to format them in a word processor and I have not yet found a solution.
How much did that cost? Can you break it down by each step?
I’m looking for a usmc giant print kjv. Is there anyone that can help me please
Is so gonna do this!!!
Do it!
I NEED HELP… Ive been wanting to Make a 1611 KJV w apocrypha that has Journaling lines in the margin. Whatever information you offer will be big.
My dream bible is a double collum, one side is ESV and one side is NLT. It also has 2 inch margins as well as interleaved with spurgeon notes at the bottom. Do you know how I can make that?
Well...you would probably have to start by writing Crossway and Tyndale to see if you could get copyright permissions. Fortunately all of Spurgeon’s notes are in the public domain. From there it could the work could be done on Microsoft word. The biggest challenge would be locating all the relevant Spurgeon notes and placing them where they belong.
I went to Master NT Greek but it only gave options for Hebrew Greek Bibles. You said you can get English but I can’t find it on that website. HELP! Lol!
I really want to do a reverse interlinear for the old and New Testament..is this possible with the site you provided?
I don’t think so.
Is there an option to choose the weight of the paper and also to do thumb indexing in the block?
Yes on the paperweight. No unfortunately on the thumb-indexing
Do you know if this software can make the font a lot bigger and rearrange the numbers of the scriptures so they go in sections down the book and not in paragraph form?
I used Microsoft word.
I have a build to spec bible idea can you help me? I am not computer savvy. LOL!
Where is a good site to download an NIV? I have found a few PDF versions but when they transfer to Word the formatting gets severely distorted.
Sorry I’m not sure about that. I’m sure there would be copyright obstacles there.
Hey! Thanks for giving in to my request for this. I have one question about Snowfall Press' printing. Do they print it with folded leaves, or are they single leaves? (if that makes sense). One issue I had with using Microsoft word is getting the font size as small as I could while still looking right. Whenever I print what I have, I found the best way to do it is convert to PDF, and when printing from Adobe Acrobat I can shrink it by percentage. It helps a lot. It allows me to shrink it to fine tune the font size, and have a lot of margin space as well. I don't know if I could get Snowfall to follow that procedure (and it would be a huge task to retype all that I have in a new document), especially if they print it on folded leaves, as I'm sure that's a more difficult process to customize. So I'm just wondering how the printing works with them.. if you can give me some more info, that would really help. God bless!
They are done with single leaves not folded. So what size font are you trying to get it down to? I’ve found Microsoft word can get down pretty small. The English side of my bible is pretty small.
@@BiblicalStudiesandReviews Well Word can only adjust by 0.5 pts at a time. So it's not about getting it smaller, but rather just getting it to the right size with the overall layout. I'm probably not explaining it well, but I messed around with tons of options when I began laying out the document I have going, and found just shrinking it about 15 percent in Adobe is easier than adjust all the fonts (headings, chapters, text, footnotes, etc.) all over the document so I can make it smaller overall. So that's kind of where I'm at with it. I wanted to be able to print it, then trim it so it would be smaller, with decent margin space (without the text being so small that it's tough to read).
Since it's only single leaves, maybe there's a way I can print it myself, then send it to be bound from there? It may be easier than redoing the whole thing. If you have any other thoughts that may help let me know. Still, this is a lot of good info to work with. Thanks a ton! (Awesome Bible by the way).
@@faithbasedchristian4494 thanks! Well here is my suggestion...1. go ahead and get your snowfall account (it’s free to setup). 2. Check out the description I have in this video (there is a troubleshooting for Snowfall link they have there.) 3. Just save the file in the format you have. You can upload what you have and then you can preview it there. You can even make some adjustments there. Like I said though hit the troubleshooting link above. There is a file format from Adobe that is optimal (not absolutely necessary) to save it in. I suggest using their “lightweight paper” as well. I would just go to snowfall and play around with it a bit until you feel comfortable. Let me know if you get stuck or need some help.
@@BiblicalStudiesandReviews Awesome, thanks for the advice. I'll follow the link and see how things work. All the best!
If I wanted to do this now in 2022, How would I be able to? The site that was used in the video has changed
I’m not ignoring this comment. I’m trying to hunt down the article for you as it’s moved.
If you don't mind me asking. How much did all of this cost you in the end? How much am I looking at?
I could have done it for much cheaper but it was around $250 all said and done.
Appreciate the info/guide Sir. i got here coz i wish to have a personal copy of the Berean Standard Bible (easy to read/understand & public domain). Grateful for your video. Will certainly try your advice and go to websites you suggested. Questions: 1. Did you include footnotes? 2. Did Snowfall Press use standard thin Bible paper? 3. Did Snowfall Press mailed the Bible to you? 4. Will Snowfall Press print even 1 copy? 5. Sir i noticed your New Testament are all Left Justify. May i know why is that? Thanks very much Sir. Liked & Subscribed ("All"). God bless you more.
Thanks. 1. I did. 2. No but they have a lightweight paper. 3. Yes. 4. Yes if the page count is low enough. 5. I did the editing in Word. I can’t remember why I did it that way. Blessings!
@@BiblicalStudiesandReviews Thanks very much Sir for your kind reply. God bless.
whats the site?
I think some of the information was deleted. I'm working with the creator.
How many pages was that one?
I think it was around 1100 or 1200
There is a page limit though
Hey I understand that this is your own Design and Layout but would it be possible by any chance that you shared your Layout and Scripts? I would really appreciate that. Even though you might not be able to help me God bless you
Let me hunt around for it. I’d be happy to send it to you. I’m not sure if I still have it.
Does Snowfall Press use Bible paper or is it 60 GSM?
They don’t use bible paper unfortunately but they do have an option for a lightweight paper. I just don’t know the GSM off hand.
@@BiblicalStudiesandReviews - The thinnest I have been able to print is on 60 GSM. Thanks
@@Project-OriginalReiteratedHoly check out this link and you can play around with the dimensions a bit www.snowfallpress.com/pricing
@@BiblicalStudiesandReviews - Thanks. Any idea on how much extra gutter space we need to add to be able to sew the pages at the other places you suggested?
@@Project-OriginalReiteratedHoly I’m not sure exactly. My guess would be an extra 1/4” inch
So you take what Snowfall press makes and send that out to a binding company? By the way, I have used Snowfall press in the past for other projects and they were great to work with
Yes exactly
