I am not sure I understand exactly what you mean, but your Editor shows the content of one document, the one you want to translate. For every sentence (= segment) in the source document, you see a source and its corresponding target segment (on the right). The right hand segment is the translation of the text in the segment on the left, so they automatically correspond to each other (or are in some ways the same, if you want).

When you create the target document, you will end up with a document that contains the sentences that you see on the right-hand side. And it is obvious that it is the same document as the source document, just with the translated text.

So, what exactly do you mean when you say that you would like the target file to not be identical to the source file?

About ghost tags: there are no ghost tags in the source segment, because a ghost tag is not a kind of tag, but a state of a tag in time. A tag becomes a ghost tag (visible because the purple color becomes whitish), when you try to delete it and it belongs to a tag pair. This is only temporary to tell you that this tag has a "brother tag", which also needs to be deleted. As soon as you delete the other tag of the pair, the ghost tag disappears.

If the text of your new document is the same as the one of the old document (= the one you have in the TM) and you get so many tag differences, then it means that the document has been either reformatted or converted to a more recent version of the format (e.g. Word).
If you use the QuickPlace function, transferring tags from left to right should not be too much of a problem (it's just a few clicks in the right place).
On the other hand, this also depends on the filter (file type) you are using. If you work with Studio 2015 and you used the new Word filetype for Word 2016 (WordProcessing ML), you may also see different tags than with the previous filters. So, in case this applies to you (you are using Studio 2015 and have used the new filter), you may disable the new Word filetype in "Options - File types", and reopen your source document (in which case Studio will do the conversion using the "Microsoft Word 2007-2013" filter) to see whether you get less tag differences against your TM.
