Modern translation tools

Our translations are created with the help of modern translation software that guarantees consistency in the documents and among different projects for the same client.

Source and target text is automatically stored in a client-specific database. By comparing the new documents with the existing data, similar or repetitive wordings or sentences are translated in the same style.

In time, this systematic approach will ensure a uniform style for all pages of large Web sites and consistent terminology for manuals for different product generations.


We can handle most popular file formats

Almost all translation jobs arrive here via e-mail. Having electronic copy available makes processing easier for our translation tools and helps to ensure completeness of the finished translation, streamlining our work flow.

To be able to process the majority of today's translation file formats, we have current versions of many of the most popular word processing and desktop publishing programs, such as FrameMaker and QuarkXPress, in addition to MS Office.

However, while striving to keep our software library as current as possible, we try to avoid installing every new piece of software that comes along and prefer to wait until the inevitable bug fixes appear. This is also the case with Office and Windows XP. On the other hand, if a client wants us to use a specific application, we will gladly install it on a single PC.

Still, not every written word exists electronically, but with the help of a professional flatbed scanner and sophisticated OCR software, we'll take care of printed material as well.
