The Process
Our translation services are offered to our agency clients as an adjunct to their own translation and proofreading services.
A very large portion of our business day-to-day consists of converting English language publications into all European languages in addition to Chinese, Japanese or Korean versions. Typically, we receive an English brochure or manual in QuarkXPress or InDesign and are asked to return one or more language versions ready to go to press. As a client of a translation agency, for example, we will extract the English text and deliver it to the agency for translation by their team of linguists.
Languages Supported
Our most popular and often requested languages for multilingual typesetting are French (Canadian and European) , Italian, German, Spanish (Latin American and European) and Portuguese (Brazilian and European) in Europe and Latin America. And the leaders in the Asian language
group are Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese and Korean.
However, we provide translation and typesetting support for a whole range of other world languages including:
Arabic, Baluchi, Bosnian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dari, Dutch, Estonian, Farsi, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Kurdish, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norweigan, Pashto, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Sindh, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Urdu, and Vietnamese. The more exotic languages frequently have more restrictions on the applications, versions and platforms supported.
Applications Supported
The applications most often requested for localization services are QuarkXPress, InDesign, PageMaker, Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, and Framemaker. We also support the MS Office suite of applications - Excel, MS Word, and Powerpoint. We provide support for all these in both Mac and PC platforms. Support will vary by language and there is almost always a way to work with your source application, language and version. That's why we ask for detailed information with your estimate request.
