I don't think we can help with this without seeing your settings file and a sample of the xml containing just a few lines to show this problem area... easy to anonymize like this too.  2017 is out of support but we can at least validate whether this is a 2017 only issue and it may be something resolved in a later build.

Hi, Paul

Thank you for your reply.

I have created a xml sample file that is the following.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><task id="TP0001653149">
<taskbody>
  <example>
    <tag_md formula="filter" id="dl0007">
      
      <p><tag_ma global="False" href="" id="as0027" idref="AS0000124288" placement="inline" /><b><uicontrol><tag_mc id="cs0035" idref="CS0000622725" table_id="TT0000003896">S39449</tag_mc></uicontrol>:</b> <ph outputclass="break" /> This is text1. This is text2 (Color A) in this line.</p>
      
    </tag_md>
    <p><tag_ma global="False" href="" id="as0032" idref="AS0000124287" placement="inline" /><b><uicontrol><tag_mc id="cs0043" idref="CS0000622643" table_id="TT0000003896">S39024</tag_mc></uicontrol>:</b> <ph outputclass="break" /> This is text3.
    <tag_md formula="WB_custom123" id="dl0014">
      
      <ph outputclass="break" /> This is text4.
      
    </tag_md>
    </p>
  </example>
</taskbody>
</task>

My custom file type setting is the following.I couldn't upload the .sdlftsettings file, so I uploaded the XML file with the file type setting.

FileTypeSetting .sdlftsettings.xml

I created the project with Default template, no memories, and the task sequence is Prepare without project TM.

Are these information sufficient?

Thanks Li Shuang

I tested in 2021 using your custom filetype and see this:

In 2017 I have this as you do:

If I change your ph rule to structure as opposed to inline I do see this:

It looks to me as though 2017 is not honouring the segmentation hint where you set this to exclude, but 2021 is.  We won't be changing 2017 now as it's too old, but perhaps making this rule structural will achieve what you want?

Hi, Paul

Thank you for your advice.

It seems to work fine and my other files are also OK.

Thank you very much.
