# Getting a corpus
Confopy needs a corpus (collection of language data) to run.
For German (TIGER treebank):
1. Go to:
http://www.ims.uni-stuttgart.de/forschung/ressourcen/korpora/TIGERCorpus/license/htmlicense.html
2. Accept the license and download TIGER-XML Release 2.2:
http://www.ims.uni-stuttgart.de/forschung/ressourcen/korpora/TIGERCorpus/download/tigercorpus-2.2.xml.tar.gz
3. Unpack the archive into confopy/localization/de/corpus\_de/
4. Run the patch tiger\_release\_aug07.corrected.16012013\_patch.py in the same folder
5. Verify that the generated file is named exactly like in confopy/config.py
# Python 3
* The package python-pdfminer only works with python 2.4 or newer, but not with python 3
# Unicode errors
* Configure terminal to use unicode!
* For Python devs:
http://docs.python.org/2/howto/unicode.html#the-unicode-type
* Convert the TIGER Treebank Version 1 file
"tiger_release_july03.penn"
to utf-8 encoding before using Confopy!
