Currently, CafeTran Espresso doesn't have a way to automatically deal with differences in trailing spaces between source segments of the current Project and those in the Memory.

During a translation process this isn't much of a problem, but in the quotation stage this can be a big problem.

So here is a workaround.

After using Translate > Insert all Exact Matches, I noticed that 277 words weren't translated.

Note that this is just a simple example. In fact, I should have duplicated the Memory. Remove all trailing spaces in one version of the Memory, add trailing spaces in the other one.

For me it's clear that CafeTran Espresso should handle this task itself.
