SDL XLIFF validation error at line ... offset ....: ...; while working with ODT file

Hello. 

I get this message while finalising my translation of a ODT document. 

Trados Studio error message window showing 3 errors related to SDL XLIFF validation at different line offsets with parts of the message in Polish language.

Interestingly, a part of the error message is in Polish language although I work with the English language interface of the Studio (but Polish lang of Win 10). In Options -> Verification the "Tag verification" is off. What does this error actually mean? Should I expect a part of the document (translation) would not be exported? In other words, how serious the message is?

I use SDL Studio 2021 on Windows 10 Home.

  • Have you merged any segments? Other reason can be missing tag. Translating with tag verifier off is a very bad idea...

    You can switch off the validation of SDLXLIFF in your project settings. This will most probably do no harm.

  • I was translating with the option ON, but switched it OFF to get rid of this error. And I was using single files while translating, no I open all of them as a multiple for the final review. The error show up when  opening the multiple as well as in a single file. 

  • Try switching the validation off.

    There are many reasons for this error. You can open the sdlxliff in a decent text editor and go to the indicated position to find out, what is causing it.
