Tagwipe

TAGWIPE - PURPOSE

More often than not Office DOCX documents have (many) useless tags.

DGT developed in-house the Tagwipe application which removes all/most redundant tags from DOCX documents. It also improves segmentation by segment.

The cleaning level in Tagwipe can be chosen by the user from level 0 to 8. By default, in the installation folder, the cleaning level defined is the second lowest and most conservative level ("level.1").

In the example below, about 90% of the tags were eliminated by Tagwipe (from 121 tags to 14 tags) and segmentation was improved. The remaining tags are meaningful tags.

OPERATING SYSTEMS

Tagwipe is being used in DGT since 2012, in a WINDOWS 7 environment, for DGT-OmegaT projects and therefore it is quite stable. In the DGT-OmegaT website it is also made available for Unix (with an installer which tries to work on any Linux distribution or any other Unix-like environment), but it has not been thoroughly tested in it.
