Topic: Studio 2015: Ensuring two spaces are inserted after segments
Poster: Hendrik Michaelson
Hello colleagues,
I am experiencing a problem in my Japanese>English translation workflow and I would appreciate your help.
As some of you may know Japanese source texts do not have any spaces after the end-of-sentence punctuation. However many of my clients require that two spaces be inserted after the English full stop. Hence I have a problem where when I select "save target as" in Studio 2015, the output English file contains no spaces after the full stops. I have been doing a find & replace in Word, but this is extremely cumbersome as it also inserts needless spaces after abbreviations, and also after decimals, which can be a tremendous problem that requires files sometimes hundreds of pages long to be checked very carefully for "rogue" spaces.
There must be a way to instruct Studio to insert two spaces after each segment when outputting the translated English file. Can anyone please instruct me on how to achieve this effect?
Many thanks for your time.
