TermInjectorPlus: configuration formatting differences to improve 100% TM matches

Hello  , 

Is it possible to configure TermInjectorPlus (TIP) to reliably ignore specific character-level differences (e.g. spaces and quotation marks) so that false 99% matches in Trados Studio are set to 100% matches without over-modifying segments or losing leverage? We want to use TIP to normalize minor formatting differences between source segments and TM entries so that they are treated as 100% matches.

We are aiming to ignore differences in source texts in Studio where:

  • Non-breaking space are changed to normal space and vice versa 
  • Curly quotation marks (single and double/opening and closing, including apostrophes) are changed to straight and vice versa 
  • Spaces (normal or non-breaking) before punctuation characters are added/removed 
  • Spaces after opening quotation marks are added/removed 
  • French-style quotes are changed to English-style quotes (curly or straight) and vice versa

Questions;

  • Is the plugin expected to support this type of use case (normalizing formatting-only differences for matching)?
  • Is there a recommended approach or best practice?
  • Can a working rule / configuration be provided to test? for some of the aspects if possible.

Thank you,
