      Hello, we are finding a problem when translating some paragraphs that contain the + character. This character is removed in the English translation. We tried using [[+]] , but still it removed the + in the translated document. We also added the + symbol in the glossary but still it does not work. Can you please tell us how to resolve it?

      Thanks and regards

        Hi Ana,

        I’ll need a few more details:

        1. Are you using the DeepL Translate or Google Translate script?

        2. Which language are you translating from, and which version of English is the target language?

        3. Can you paste the full paragraph that is causing the issue so that I can try it myself?

        Thanks,

        Ariel

            Hi Ana,

            That’s good to hear. Did you figure out what was causing the issue? (It might be helpful for others to know as well.)

            Thanks,

            Ariel

              Hi, we fix the issue by replacing the + character by the %2b symbol when creating the txt file. And in the glosary we added  the following translation: %2b -> +

              This is not a final solucion but at least it works.

              Hope this helps other users.

              Regards

                Interesting. As I mentioned, if you pasted a paragraph with some text that is failing for you, I’ll be happy to test and see if I can figure out what’s going on.

                  Hi Ana,

                  Thanks for reporting this issue.

                  I’ve just posted a fix, so please download the latest version of DeepL Translate (it’s version 3.1.4): https://www.id-extras.com/shopping-cart/my-account/

                  This fixes the issue of + signs turning into spaces. So you should no longer need to use the Dictionary function as a workaround!

                  Let me know how it goes and if this solves the issue for you.

                  Thanks,

                  Ariel
