Technical translation

Terminology and safety information

Provide glossaries, component names, drawings and approved reference versions. Terms, units and warnings need consistency throughout the project. Agree any additional review and your organisation’s technical approval before work starts.

Versions and layout

Editable originals are preferable to PDF alone. Identify changed sections and clarify whether tables, figures and embedded labels are included in the assignment.

Typical content and situations

• Operating and maintenance manuals
• Data sheets and specifications
• Technical training material
• Product and system documentation

Delivery date and project scope

Turnaround depends on the text length, languages and subject area. Send the complete text and your actual deadline so we can confirm a delivery date after review. For ongoing projects, we can agree staged delivery and version handling.

What to include in your enquiry

• Complete source files and required delivery format
• Source and target language, target country or regional variant
• Subject area, audience, glossary and reference material
• Requested delivery date and additional review requirements
