If you're not using the parser or NER, it's probably safe to increase the `nlp.max_length` limit. The limit is in number of characters, so you can check whether your inputs are too long by checking `len(text)`. === file2bib.sh === id: 21642 author: Cadogan, Adelaide, Lady title: Lady Cadogan's Illustrated Games of Solitaire or Patience New Revised Edition, including American Games date: pages: extension: .txt txt: ./txt/21642.txt cache: ./cache/21642.txt Content-Encoding UTF-8 Content-Type text/plain;
