Saving a Document

Save your document reasonably often as you annotate. GATE has no auto-save feature!

  1. Right click on the document name under Language Resources

    OR

    right click on the appropriate tab in the list of open documents at the top of the middle frame.
  2. Select: Save As XML.
  3. Type in the file name that you want to give it. Example: hr7-taw.xml. Make sure that it was saved with an .xml extension.
  4. When you are completely done with your annotations and have saved the document for the last time, you may want to try closing the document in GATE (right-click -> Close), and reopening it to check that all of you annotations were saved properly.
  5. Please rename your completed, final annotated document. Unless instructed otherwise, use the original document name, extended by your login (or initials) and the word "final":
    e.g. CWY098.josefr.final.xml
Finally, click on the Messages tab to see if there was an error saving the file.
