Converting text to tags in TM

Question

Hello folks, 
 I have an XML file which I processed with an embedded content rule to have links appear as tags in the editor. 
 However, my TM (from which I'd like to retrieve many 100% matches) was built up without this rule and simply contains "raw" text, therefore I'm not getting any 100% matches. 
 Is there something I can do to have my TM give me 100% matches (by converting text into tags/embedded content in the TM perhaps?)?

Many thanks for your precious help,

Romain Neveu Oh no! I see the problem but we dont have a TM tag mapping to help address scenario's like this. Would be a good app - which I have noted so watch this space. What you can do is change the TM penalties to 0, which will give you 100% match But you will still have to move over the source tags to target tags, so while your analysis will be correct your effort will not be saved. Depending how big your TM is and depending how big a project this is, I would be tempted to see if you can export your TM to TMX. Goal would be to amend how the TM data is being displayed, to update new TM that has correct/improved tag formatting. You would need to d ownload the TMX file type from the private app store as well as Data Protection Suite I dont have your files, so here is a bit of an experiment based on my files. See TM content with <> raw tags. Export as TMX See TMX file in Editor View, using TMX file Type I created a rule using Data Projection Suite, stating that content between <> should be tagged Once complete, I then have this By no means is my example perfect as my regex rule was too inclusive and some actual translated content got tagged. Mostly likely I would need to specify each individually to get a more accurate results. But conceptually I hope it gives you an idea of how TMX with Data Projection Suite can be used to review your "*.sdlTM" data Then you would updated to a new TM and hopefully achieve not only better analysis results but also reduced tagging effort. I hope this gives you something to explore if you feel it necessary Have a good day Lyds
