DOCUMENT TRANSLATION
Translation Process
In the Translation Department, a Project Director oversees the project from beginning to end. The Project Director determines which translator(s) is most qualified for the project based on his or her background and experience related to the document’s topic. Prior to commencing the translation process, the Project Director meets with the translator(s) to standardize technical terms, idioms, and phrases that will be used in the document. Based on the deadline specified by the client, the translator(s) will start the translation process immediately after the meeting. After the process is complete, the translator(s) forwards the document to the proof-reader for the final checking. The whole process is performed to ensure that our clients receive quality translation result.
We deliver excellent quality translations in a wide range of formats on a variety of topics, such as:
Types of Documents
Books, brochures, newsletters, pamphlets, manuals, catalogues, guide books, maps, diagrams, websites, presentation media, promotional media, certificates, training materials, handouts, proposals and reports.
