My intention was to have a stable process were the "template designer" is using word/libreoffice/etc as a visual editor.

I just tested my "concept" with LibreOffice, it's doing the job, except....

... sometimes intermittent <w:...> tags are injected into the placeholder, especially where the underscores are.

I have to manually mark them and choose "remove formatting" from the menu. I suppose it's word-break information.

(I can of course also correct it on the source level.)

So a manual correction is still necessary, if the translator throws errors.

HTH :)

Disclaimer: didn't try any other apps like MS Word or Google docs.

and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
