Write as text operator writing original text

ayaRizk

I have a couple of loop files operators to conduct a series of preprocessing steps on a corpus of annual reports documents (including tokenization, stemming, etc.). The last step is to write the preprocessed documents in text files using the "Write as text" operator. However, it writes the original text rather than the tokenized version (seen on the top half of my results view - see attached screenshot).

Thanks for the help!

Hi,

you can try to use a combination of "Documents to Data" with use processed data checked → Data to Documents → Loop Collection with Write Document to store the tokenized version.
