importing error?

[Ayesha Nicole]

Good Morning!

I exported a deck from Quizlet separated by tab and pasted it into Notepad and saved as UTF-8; and am attempting to import a tab-deliminated text using these instructions:

"Plain text and Microsoft Office (Word and Excel)

Mnemosyne can import plain text files where each line contains a question/answer pair separated by a tab. So e.g. if you have such a list in Word, save it as plain text (*.txt), choose 'other encoding - Unicode (UTF-8)' if your data contains foreign characters, and then you get a file which you can import in Mnemosyne if you choose the 'Tab-separated text files' format."

and received the attached error message, and I am unsure what exactly is incorrect?  What do you advise, please?

Hi,

 

As you’d expect from the error message, it means line 4 is not correctly formatted J

 

Double check if that line (and all lines) contains a question and an answer separated by a single tab.

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

Good Evening,

Yes, but it is unclear to me what formatting is incorrect?  Are there any charachters that would cause it - or just tab spacing?  I attached the file, because I do not understand what the error is?  The only tabs are from exporting from Quizlet.  There are hard returns in the text - would those be recognized as 'tabs'?  

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Ayesha

Hi,

 

Your cards are spread over many lines, so that won’t work. Each card should be on a single line, and if you want line breaks in your card text, use <br> instead of a hard return.
