Hello,

I'm just starting to use WFP 5 but when regularly copying a word from a segment into my Safari browser I get some weird additional characters.

Fore example I copy the word "Germany" and I paste it in my browser and I get

<b realtype="bold">Germany</b>

Could anybody help?

Thanks a lot

Tag preferences Jul 12, 2018

Hi Patrick,

I'm using WF5 on a Mac and I don't get that problem. I've just re-checked.

Maybe in the source segment there are tags which are not viewed, but there are, so when you copy/paste you also copy/paste the tags.

Anyway, I'm using WF5 as well, but there are still some issues.

Let me know

Actually yes, these are definitely tags. I just tried on a different file and I can copy normally.

Though I still not know why the tags are kind of "glued" on the respective word.

Lucia, I'm back here now and for sure there will be some more issues.

Talk soon and thanks!

Maybe you should check un the tag preferences if tags are setup without a space around, I mean around the word they refer to.
