Hello, This technical issue sometimes occurs when I try to add a file (DOCX or PDF) to be translated by WFP version 5.6.0.

Did you try renaming the source file to only use Latin letters, not Arabic script? Sometimes this can cause problems. And did you resolve the problem? If yes – how? Other users might benefit from your experience.

However, if you put such a file inside a new folder and then add the folder to WFP6, then it accepts it. | | | John Di Rico France Local time: 12:30 Member (2006) French to English
Are you saving this to a flash drive (E:\)? If so, it won't work. I forget the technical explanation, but Wordfast files and assets should not be saved on USB keys or external drives. There might be a way to get around this limitation if the drive is formatted a particular way, but you'll have to contact tech support to find out. Out of curiosity, why are you using version 5.6? Why not upgrade to the latest version or at least to 5.8 if you need a 32-bit version? | |

[Edited at 2021-05-03 21:49 GMT] Yes, I did, but without success. Creating a new project fixed the issue. Thanks @Stefan. | | | Lamine Boukabour Algeria Local time: 11:30 Member (2022) English to Arabic TOPIC STARTER Creating a new project fixed the issue | May 22, 2021 |
@Samuel and John, thank you for the suggestions, none of that worked so I tried to create a new project from the outset.
