Post title: Thanks for both of you!
To Hans: Thank you for making the video! :) The segmentation of source has to be kept, and the target has also to be a matching number of segments. I see it is possible to do it in CafeTran. At the moment I have just OmegaT, that has no similar to join or split. Checked Wordfast Anywhere, that has Expand and Shrink, which looks similar.
To Samuel: thanks, I tried reproducing what you wrote, and I think it worked. I like this approach better, because it works with the whole file, and works even in OmegaT without join and split. If I can't match target number segments to source in OmegaT perfectly, no problem, it is quite easy to correct that in Word as well.
I still think changing the segmentation rules would be the simplest way, but the only thing I discovered is that this hidden character at the end of cells is called either 'end of cell mark', or 'end of row mark' (or marker). How to tell a CAT not to end the sentence there, I have no idea. I found Okapi's Ratel doing these kind of SRX files, but I am completely lost at this point.
Thank you, really, for both of you!!! :)
