Translation Process
 

The actual translation process begins with your source electronic file. Customer files can easily be uploaded to us via the Document Management section of your account pages. In addition, the translator uses the original file(s), all reference material and existing glossaries (if available) to ensure a full, consistent, and accurate translation. Throughout the translation project, the 4Translation project manager coordinates all translation issues with you and the translation team regarding terminology and style to ensure consistency and quality throughout the process.

Independent Editing
 

Once the draft translation is completed, the translation (along with all reference material) is then sent to an independent native speaking editor for review and editing. This process takes roughly half as long as the initial translation. The editor's comments are returned to the original translator to incorporate changes and finalize the translation.

Multilingual Desktop Publishing
 

Once the translation work is completed, the target language text is placed in your original layout application and formatted to match your original document. 4Translation provides multilingual desktop publishing in both Western and Non-Western languages. The following is a summary of typical applications for both MAC and PC:

 

Adobe PageMaker

 

QuarkXpress

 

Adobe In Design

 

Adobe FrameMaker

 

Microsoft Word

 

Corel Draw

 

HTML Editors

Client Review
 

You then have a chance to review the translation and gain internal approval by native speakers in your organization within a timely manner. Client review documents are provided in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. 4Translation will incorporate one round of your review comments within 30 days of delivering files.

Final Delivery
 

We then return both the final PDF file and the final source application file to you for distribution and printing.
