Localization Table upolad fails with cell contents being less than 300 characters

Reproduction Steps

- Create a Localization Table file (.csv file)

  • Insert a cell that has less, but close to 300 characters
  • Upload the file using “Update” or “Replace” feature of the Localization Tools plugin

Expected Behavior

The file should upload successfully

Actual Behavior

The upload fails, saying some cells contain more than the character limit.

Some examples in my files:

Raw error message examples:

Translation string for table entry (locale: “fr”, translation: “Autrefois un soldat charismatique pendant la Grande guerre, il a pénétré dans la dimension cénobite à travers un puzzle - Lament Configuration – qui a détruit son être, pour lequel il est maintenant en colère. Sa peau semble jaunâtre et sa tête est couverte de pics qui s’accrochent à ses victimes.”) exceeds character limit

Translation string for table entry (locale: “sk”, translation: “Kedysi počas prvej svetovej vojny bol charizmatickým vojakom, vstúpil do cenobitovej dimenzie prostredníctvom skladačky - Konfigurácia náreku -, ktorá vymazala jeho ľudskú bytosť, na ktorú sa teraz cíti nahnevaný. Jeho pokožka vyzerá žltkasto a tvár je pokrytá špendlíkmi, ktoré lepia jeho obete.”) exceeds character limit

Translation string for table entry (locale: “ru”, translation: “Когда-то солдат во время Первой мировой войны вошел в измерение ценобитов через загадку - Конфигурация плача, которая стерла его человеческую личность, на что он теперь злится. Его кожа кажется желтоватой, а лицо покрыто булавками, склеивающими его жертв.”) exceeds character limit

Note that all these examples have less than 300 characters, and the upload was working before the bug started occurring.

This problem does not seem to happen in the Localization Cloud (i.e: the website).
