I just finished translating a word file, but I get this error and cannot open it, not with MS Word, nor with LibreOffice:

SAXParseException: '[word/document.xml line 2]: Couldn't find end of Start Tag docPr

What could have gone wrong and can I salvage the file somehow (with, say BBedit)?

I can however export to a bilingual file, but that is not wha

I can however export to a bilingual file, but that is not what I need...

EDIT: Solved!
I found this topic: https://www.proz.com/forum/cafetran_support/337835-problem_exporting_file.html

That helped. Making sure the whole document was set to the source language, reloading the project, then run a QA (tags showing up that had not been there before?), then exporting it, worked like a shine!

Hello Ingrid,

Did you run the 2 QA checks for tags?

If so, you can send the document to the developer, by creating a ticket:

Good luck!
