Same segmentation rules (paragraph, probably) used across all tested tools?
If it's an SRX file, you can share it for comparative testing with other tools. [/quote]
In all tools used THEIR default settings. I don't know, if they are similar or not, but not splitting on TABs by default — VERY strangeidea. Every month day I see a lot of bad formatted document with tabbed tables, which, if not segmented on tabs, are the torture for translation and the HEADACHE for further TM usage (Agencies do that, cause most managers don't understand this problem).
There is a DOCX and TMX in archive. I don't think that it's difficult to get statistics with them in any CAT.
