Translation – from A – Z

Our customers know they can expect quality from us; that is why we do not make promises we cannot keep.

quality objective no. 3

“True translation is the art of adapting something said in another language to one’s own language.”
Martin Luther (1483-1546)

That is our day-to-day business.

We believe in the following principles:

• Exclusive deployment of translators with a degree or similar qualification
• Translation into native language as a matter of basic principle
• Expert knowledge thanks to specialisation
• Guarantee of coherence in style and terminology via project-specific engagement of translators
• Trust and loyalty thanks to interaction with freelance colleagues based on partnership

Consequently, we can offer true professional competence:

• More than 30 years of know-how in project implementation
• Commitment, flexibility, professionalism and qualified response capacity of internal and external staff
• Terminology management (customer-oriented terminology databases for large-scale projects) and deployment of CAT tools (SDL Trados, Déjà-VU, etc.)
• Internal quality control
• Certification of translations

We also provide the following specialised skills:

• Transcription of spoken and text documents and subtitles
• Synchronisation of training films; delivery of suitable file formats

A fair fee system emphasises the partnership nature of the collaboration between our customers and our colleagues:

• Invoicing: per line of target text (55 characters incl. blanks) or per word source text
• Surcharge possible for texts with special layout or urgent jobs
• Invoicing per hour for special assignments such as proof-reading after typesetting, amendment or revision of translations, work done in Excel or PowerPoint, transcription, synchronisation
• Fixed minimum rate for low-volume translations
