Studio 2019: Match repair breaks telephone numbers

Piotr Bienkowski

Screenshot of Trados Studio showing mismatched numbers, with the source text displaying '430:01:11:22.5547' and the target text incorrectly showing '430:01:11:80:11:22'. An orange warning icon indicates the error.

Clearly the number on the right is wrong. Of course I can copy source to fix it, but “one must not allow for one's attention to be put to sleep by the wrench icon”.

    You can see from the separate blue underlines that this "number" is seen as six separate placeables which is why it goes wrong as Studio just "repaired" them with something that seemed closer to what it has in the TM.

    Good reason to note these two things:

    1. Often better to tackle these number only segments first just with a little regex... complete them all and lock them before you do anything else.

    2. Note the use original match button in the TM results window, which may not be relevant in this case, but sometimes it is helpful

    You are correct in noting the importance of not being put to sleep ;-)
