Hi,

I was working on two docx files from the same client in one OmegaT project. However, for file fff, when I try to generate the final translated document, it does, but then I get this error from Word 2010:
=========
The file fff cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents.

Details - le nom placé dans la balise de fin d'élément doit correspondre au type d'élément de la balise de début.

Location: part: /word/document.xml, line: 2, column 89307
=========

The original files were "doc," I saved them as "docx" with compatibility on, and then opened them in OmegaT (not that this might necessarily be relevant, but it's what I did).

Does this mean that it's a "balise" for formatting text in OmegaT? Or some other thing?

Does anyone know what this is and how the problem can be solved?

I tried this test: I made a copy of the fff document, created a new OmegaT project, imported the copy fff file with the translation memory, and started just confirming the text from the memory into the translated text. I did it for 10 paragraphs and was able to generate a Word final file correctly, so I continued about half way through the document. When I tried to generate the final translated file again, I got the same error as in my original translation.

Thanks a bunch for any help. ▲ Collapse
