Overview

This section deals with how WordSmith handles BNC-type tags.

But first, it is best to get a nice clean version of your BNC. This is needed because

•	the BNC has always come in Unix format, not in normal Windows format

•	the files and folders they're stored in have their original BNC names and to most people these are meaningless

•	the XML version of the text is in UTF8, which is a widely-used but problematic standard which uses clumsy methods for representing many characters.

To do this, use Text Converter.
