No worries, it's mostly due to JHowell's work on the KFX Input plugin. If it weren't for his method of extracting positions from the book content, we'd still be stuck.

Most of the times however, when trying to save the file, the program throws an exception altogether
I've uploaded a new version (2.1.108) that should fix a bunch of the issues, the "create terms" UI is still kind of bad though, sorry about that.

If you send me a copy of the book & the error log, I can have a look (in a PM via any upload site, Google Drive, or I can PM you my email if necessary, whatever works for you).
If it was in the German content you mentioned, it might be a UTF8/encoding issue, which has always been a pain for this stuff, but definitely fixable.
