Dear colleagues,

I am encountering a Tag display problem on SDL Trados 2014 and I don't really know how to describe it with words, but I think (from my experience with other CAT tools) that it is related to a problem with JRE (maybe a recent update).
Basically, I am getting one tag per letter, which makes it quite difficult to read the sentence; If I can't find a solution to this problem, well, I'll have to translate manually...

So, I would really appreciate to get someone's help to solve this problem.

Thank you for your answers.

Here is a picture of what I Trados is displaying:

... a file that has been converted from a PDF perhaps. So you have kerning between the letters which will be represented by a tag with pretty much any CAT tool other than one that works inside Word.

Check this article from Tuomas Kostiainen... might be helpful:

@Paul
Thank you for your answer.

Apparently, I solved the problem by updating Java. The display is now OK, however, it still doesn't recognize words as such, hinting at the hidden tags...
Anyway, I a can at least read the text, which is very handy to translate.

I have also had problems with multiple tags making the file illegible in 2014, and it turned out to be changes in fonts in the source text - (some kind of corruption) so I changed everything to one font, and could then read it fine.

I am just putting this out for future reference!
