Good evening,

I am trying to save my target text, and I get the following Error message:
Error saving the target text: The opening label 'w.root' in line 1 does not coincide with the end label of 'w.p.' Line 276, position 9.

Can any specialist give me some idea of how I can successfully save the target file?

If possible, I need it by tomorrow 08:00 am (CET).

Thanks in advance,

Nigel

I presume you have already checked all the tags.

If the source file was converted from pdf, usually the hopes are not very high.

I hope someone from SDL will check in and help you with this issue. They could not in my case.

Workaround Jan 25, 2016

Put the source text in a Word file for a new translation (as a new project or document) and re-translate by using the TM you used before. That way you should get the target text area populated as you click your way down and save it as a new target text. Save it not only in the SDL folder (that's wher it would be saved automatically), but also in another folder on the desktop. Of course you might have to copy and paste that text paragraph by paragraph into your original formatted file you receive... See more
