Importertool doesn´t convert dictionaries& encyclopedia

Hi,

thanks for the Importertool. I converted some german bible-Versions some ot that sort I never imagined to get free. So thanks for this tool.

But there is a problem with the following XML-Moduls (dictionaries, encyclopedia) from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... p_id=89078

De_rieger

sf_easton

sf_smith

sf_tcr

rwebster-lex

en_torreys

The Importertool converted these xml-Files very fast but not correctly. E.g. it converted a 5MB-XML-File into a 50KB-TheWord-File. It doens´t run.

Is there a special Dictionary-Converter-tool? Or what´s the solution?

greetings and blessing

For all those who don't read the parallel thread in the german forum: the importer is so far a bible converter only. Dictionaries cannot be converted yet. I don't know but I figure that Costas may provide that functionality later on.

Johannes is correct. The converter only handles Bible modules.
Unfortunately, non-Bible modules come in different formats at this moment and i am not sure what is the 'official' yet. But, i think that most of the dictionaries on Zefania are also in TW format (already converted).
Which modules would you like me to convert? I can do it and upload them easily.

To be honest, the converter can handle dictionaries also but this is in a very early stage and i have not released this yet (and i am not sure there is any reason since they are too few).

Hi Costas and Johannes,

thanks for the answers.

Which modules would you like me to convert? I can do it and upload them easily.

Because I don´t know any of these dictionaries I´m interested in all of them to cehck them out. If it is easy for you to convert them all - so I would say: Please convert all of these six

:

De_rieger
sf_easton
sf_smith
sf_tcr
rwebster-lex
en_torreys

they are all from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... p_id=89078
