I have installed SDL Trados 7 on two computers.
When analysing the same files on these computers I get different results, in terms of Fuzzy Matches, Reps etc. This difference is quite big.
Does anyone have any ideea why is this happening?

Different TMs or different segmentation rules Sep 28, 2011

Sorry if this is obvious but basically if you're using the same TM, you will get the same results.

Hidden text? Sep 28, 2011

I had this happen recently where the Trados on one computer picked up a ton of "hidden" text from the Word file that the Trados on the other computer did not.

This is the mystery. I am using the same TM. Everything is practically the same but still the results are very different on the two computers.

Hidden Text?
If this is the case, where should I look for this Hidden Text? What can I do so that in the future I will get the same results for an analysis?

office version Sep 29, 2011

Are you using the same office version on the two computers? Word 2007 and word 2010 handle text differently.

One file or several? Sep 29, 2011

Are you analyzing more than one ttx? If more than one, are the files being analyzed in the same order on both computers?

Is there any way you could post your analysis results?

Problem solved Sep 30, 2011

I managed to find the solution after all.
After comparing the settings in Workbench, it seems that the problem was in the Penalties tab, in Translation Memory Options. I restored those settings to default and now the word count works fine.
Thank you every one for your input!
