Translation & Localization
Technical translation
In its most basic sense, translation is the process of converting words from one language to another. However, delivering an accurate and culturally appropriate technical translation involves an expert understanding of both the subject matter and the intended use of the translation. Each locale has its own specific languages, cultural conventions, legal standards, and preferences that must be met in order to achieve acceptance.
Our linguists are subject-matter experts who have the experience to address your most complex and technical translation projects, in a variety of file formats. From user manuals and online help to datasheets and training courses, our team translates your technical contents accurately and cost effectively.
Our translation process can be summarized as follows:
- Analysis of project scope (including translation memories and glossaries)
- Analysis of source text in relation to the intended audience and target language
- Creation and use of glossary and translation memory (if applicable)
- Translation by hand-picked, in-country, native speakers of the target language
- Editing and proofreading of translated text (spelling, grammar, style, consistency with source text, harmonization between translators, adherence to style guide, etc.)
- Technical review of translated text (terminological accuracy, consistency, adherence to glossaries, understanding of technical concepts, etc.)
- Quality control at various stages during the project and before final delivery, to ensure that the translation is consistent with both the industry's standards and your specifications
