Update: Version 12.0.5 has fixed this issue. The tutorial now stands as an example of how to do your own custom changes of any sort to an Inserted text.
The Accordance Services allow you to pull all kinds of text out of Accordance and into your current program, without ever leaving the program you're working in. You can see an overview here. It was pointed out on the forums that when using the "Acc-Insert Verses" Service to insert scripture text into your document, that the book names are always in English even if your default language is non-English.
Since the Accordance Services are a type of Automator Workflow, you can customize them to your hearts content. A simple solution, then, is to add a step in the workflow that substitutes all English book names, with the name of your choosing. Here is an example of how to do it.
You can download the Service here, and install it.
All I've done is add a "Run AppleScript" Action that dissects a tab-delimited list of
EnglishName[tab]nonEnglishName
EnglishName[tab]nonEnglishName
EnglishName[tab]nonEnglishName
…
Hence, you can open up the Service in Automator and customize the list yourself, and save it.
For the Service to work, you need to make sure the "Get Text from Accordance" action has checked to "Use Citation Format", and that in Accordance:Preferences:Citation that you have not checked "Abbreviate book name".
That's all you really need to know to use the custom Service. For the curious, what I did was open the "Acc - Insert Verses" Service and duplicate it and named it with German in the title.
Then I added a new "Run Applescript" action and wrote a script that parses a tab-delimited list, making it easy to edit. The script looks for every instance of the original bookname followed by a space and a digit, replacing as directed. Here is the full text of the AppleScript:
