Translator, proofreader, formatting check
Where All File Formats fits, and the parts we cannot confirm without seeing the file.
Step 01
Intake and scope
Scope, format, deadline and glossary are agreed in writing at intake, so nothing is renegotiated later and the brief is fully documented.
Step 02
Terminology preparation
A project glossary is locked before drafting, so sector terms stay consistent across the whole file and future revisions.
Step 03
Translation
A domain translator drafts your file against the locked glossary, preserving layout, register and the exact wording of the source.
Step 04
Second-reader review
A separate linguist verifies terminology, numbers, dates and names line by line, never the original translator.
Step 05
Formatting and delivery
Fonts, tables, headers and numbering are rebuilt to match the source, and the final file is checked against it before it ships.
