Previous versions of the same file showed more tags in places. Import into memoQ 5, as-is, no tag clean-up. Here's an example of the same DOCX file "unzapped" in several tools: What is most consistent is the ability of CodeZapper to clean up the files in various versions of Microsoft Word and make the tag structures appear a little more uniform. Sometimes one tool looks better than another, but the patterns are not always consistent. During this work, I have been struck time and again by the differences in the tags "found" by different tools working with the same file. Over the past few days I have been updating some training documentation and running a lot of tests on tagged files as part of this. That means it pays for itself in far less than an hour of saved time. I blogged the release of the latest version not long ago it is now available directly from him for a modest fee of 20 euros (see the link to the release announcement for a contact link). Turner works steadily at improving the tool. It doesn't solve every problem with superfluous tags, but it solves a lot of them, and Mr. His CodeZapper macros have probably saved me hundreds of hours of wasted time over the years (not an exaggeration), and I think there are a lot of other translators and project managers with similar experiences. Readers of this blog probably know by now that I am a Dave Turner fan. ![]()
