<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Caro,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Going from CHAT to ELAN and back is straightforward, because the tiers are named in the CHAT file and then ELAN picks them up correctly, so that you smoothly roundtrip. However, when you start in ELAN, the names of the tiers are not in
CHAT format, so you have to go into ELAN’s tier-naming function and rename each tier. If your file began in CHAT, then the tiers probably already have names that will pass on without problems during the conversion. However, if your file was produced originally
in ELAN, it may be necessary to rename the tiers to CHAT format before running elan2chat. For example, a tier called NorGes in ELAN that marks gestures from the speaker Norman should be renamed as gpx@NOR in ELAN by clicking on the tier name on the left and
using the Change Attributes function, so that it will come out as the %gpx tier for *NOR in the CHAT file.<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Times"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
