Tags

Tags help track of things such as the format for source content. They are not translated and they come in pairs: an opening and a closing tag. Translated content retains the formatting of the source content, so even though tags do not themselves need translation, they are an important component in the final translation. For this reason, translations should retain the same tags and same location within a target segmentas the source segment.

  Alert:

With Transcheck enabled, a warning message results when you try to save a target segment with missing tags.

  Alert:

Wordfast Pro issues a warning if you try to save a segment with a missing tag or an open tag. An open tag is part of a tag pair in the target segment that is missing its matching close tag. If you choose to ignore the warning, it discards the offending tag in the target segment.
