Since a few months I have had these odd analysis results that seem to double the word count of a document. Mind you, the actual analysis is correct, just the total word count is way too high. Any idea why?

Weird, and not sure what it means. Sep 30, 2015

I saw that your word count of 10546 consists of exactly "Repetition" + "Pre-translated" + 2 * "Not started", so all the not started words indeed count precisely double for some reason.
I don't see how that could come to be, but maybe someone else can make something of this.

MemoQ's double vision Sep 30, 2015

Thank you for your reply. It's still the same, by the way, and it only bothers me when I try to send someone a word count without revealing details of the analysis. No big deal, just an oddity. - Oh, and I just noticed I used "since" grammatically wrong. Sorry about that. Comes from posting late at night.
