All texts in a Visionaire project can be exported to a csv (comma separated value) file. Go to the menu "Extras" - "Export texts...", set all options as you need them, set export to "into CSV file" and press ok. The exported csv file can be opened and modified with OpenOffice, MS Excel or any other application which can handle csv files. It is recommended to use OpenOffice because it has better support for character enconding.

  • OpenOffice: Start OpenOffice Calc, Open the previously exported csv file. In the "Text Import" dialog select "Unicode (UTF-8)" as "character set". Set the separator to "Semicolon" (instead of "Colon"). Leave the "Text delimiter" as ". Press "OK" to import the csv file.

After all changes are made and the file is ready for import in Visionaire go to "Save as" and select "Text CSV (.csv)" for file type. This exported .csv file can then be imported in the Visionaire Editor. Go to the menu "Extras" - "Import texts...", select the .csv file and import the fields you need.

  • MS Office:
