Well, by giving you the names of those three files I gave all the needed info, I hope. The path and name of generated .po file from SDF corresponds (AFAIK) to the first two strings of a SDF entry. Example: the line with English text in SDF: helpcontent2 source\text\shared\guide\insert_bitmap.xhp ends up in a po file with this path and name: helpcontent2/source/text/shared/guide.po So, actually you need to check all changes made by m57 in SDF en-US entries starting with: helpcontent2 source\text\scalc\01\* helpcontent2 source\text\scalc\guide\* helpcontent2 source\text\swriter\guide\* where * is a wildcard for anything that follows. >> OT: with all these icon (img tags) changes or additions, and I do not >> want to start a flaming war here, I see mostly inches are still used, >> although inches are officially used in only three countries today - >> the U.S.A., Myanmar and Liberia, I think.

Namely, changes in m57 include also (regarding to m56): From: <image id=\"img_id7261268\" src=\"res/helpimg/border_ca_5.png\" width=\"1.1354inch\" height=\"0.25inch\"><alt id=\"alt_id7261268\">default icon row of Borders tab page</alt></image> To: <image id=\"img_id7261268\" src=\"res/helpimg/border_ca_5.png\" width=\"1.0937in\" height=\"0.2189in\"><alt id=\"alt_id7261268\">default icon row of Borders tab page</alt></image> If inches and the measures contained here are not relevant at all, how come this changed in m57. If it already changed and needed to change, then it should change to cm-s :) But again, this change should not affect translators. Also, what worries me, the 6-blanks are starting to appear also in the non-help strings, and I do not know, if it is meant to be or should be ignored. See in SDF: migrationanalysis src\wizard\wizard.ulf 0 LngText %ERROR_MACRO_SECURITY_SET% My posts might be extensive, but I really want to lay out all different things that happened here so they won't happen again.
