Default OpenOffice Format Configuration

Every file format has a default configuration to ensure that a file can be translated; however, it does not handle every complex property that could be thrown your way when translating a source file. The default configuration for OpenOffice Format files does the following: 

• Extracts Document Properties for Translation.
• Does Not Show Leading/Trailing Whitespaces.
• Does Not Show Texts Containing Neither Letters nor Digits.
• Ignores Formatting Changes Applied to Whitespaces.
• Uses SRX Rules for Text Segmentation.
• Always Splits Text at Line Breaks. 

Custom OpenOffice Format Configurations

If you are performing an OpenOffice Format file translation, a custom file format configuration might be necessary to achieve the right results in your target file. Outside of the default configuration selections, Wordbee Translator offers many additional choices including:

• Not Extracting Document Properties.
• Extracting User Comments.
• Showing Leading/Trailing Whitespaces.
• Showing Texts Containing Neither Letters nor Digits.
• Ignoring Formatting Changes for Texts Containing Neither Letters nor Digits.
• Defining Styles That Should Not Be Translated.
• Excluding Specific Types of Content from the Translation.
