Hi again,

with some tests before...

Actually, you only need to enter your bullet in the before break regex and a fullstop (any character) in the after break regex. I don't know the \p{... symbols well, are you sure you need them?

Both "bullet" and "\u2022" work.

Kind regards

Sébastien

Hi Sébastien, hi Nora

Many thanks for the hints. I got a bit confused with the "Basic View" and "Advanced View" of the segmentation rule.

And to answer Sébastien's question about the \p{... part of the regex: this is automatically added by Studio if one enters the characters in the "Basic View".

I tried your suggestion and Studio now does segment at the bullet, but the bullet shows up as a character at the end of the previous segment, see below:

How can I avoid this?

Hi Sébastien

Thanks for the hint. Adding a seg rule for soft return works. And with a display filter set like this:

I can hide the bullet only segments in the Editor (in case you wonder about the "\*", I extended the bullet rule to include also the asterisk because this this use case also has list items introduced by an asterisk).

So far, this works fine now, not only on my simple Word sample, but also on the Excel document. However, I have another problem with the Excel, which is probably not at all related to the segmentation. When I preview the Excel or save as target, the target only contains text in the first 4 segments the rest of the document is empty. I'll now need to find out what causes this.

Thanks a lot for the help on the segmentation rules.
