Hi Collegues,

I've created a glossary with many terms and I copy source with target terms per each segment, but terms are doubled.
For instance: "au moins" in Italian "almeno", then in target segment I get "almeno moins", and this is for all similar istances.

Moreover, if the term in glossary is preceeded by an apostrophe, it isn't recognized.

Besides the above I would propose WF developers:

- Adding a function in the "copy source" to copy only terms in glossary without the rest of the source text
- Implementing the terms in glossary when pretranslating o Translate All/Until Fuzzy/Until Nomatch

As is, the glossary is not very useful.

Have a nice day
