TTechnical know-how

With more than 40 years of experience in translation and interpreting, we have built up a reliable and professional network of technical translators to ensure the best results. We have been using CAT tools since the mid 90s for optimization and minimization of the translation amount. Quality assurance and production management are based on the European standard DIN EN ISO 17100 for translation services (DIN CERTCO Reg. No. 7U552).

FFrequently asked questions

The easiest way to receive an offer is to send us overwritable files (plain text or open layout files) which we will then analyze with our CAT tools to determine the required translation amount. 100% matches as well as repeated texts are recognized and will not be considered for the invoice. Should you only have PDF files, the calculation will be based on the plain text of the PDF file. If you wish to receive the PDF in layout, additional cost may arise.

According to our company policy, the customer will be considered as owner of the provided text and therefore will also get free access to the database.

We can work in the most common DTP programs (Framemaker, Quicksilver, Indesign, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, Corel Ventura, others on request) as well as in all Office applications.

We provide quotations for each project and compare the text to be translated with the contents of the database. Thanks to the database, there will be considerable cost savings after a short period of time especially for big manuals, which we will pass on to our customers.
