@Victor239 , I can reproduce the issue, thanks a lot for submitting this example! I'm pretty sure it has to do with the doublequote ". I'll bet this doesn't get escaped correctly which leads to word-metadata (position, accuracy. etc) leaking into the output. I'm on it!

[dynobo]

Should be fixed in the latest v0.4.2 (It might take a while to appear on flathub, though).

Thanks again, and please feel free to re-open, if issue persists :-)
