Questions we get asked

Answers are limited to what we can confirm at intake.

How long does terminology management take?
We confirm this at intake. Pricing, turnaround and any agency wording depend on the document and the receiving institution, so we state them in writing before work starts and keep pending items marked as pending.
What should I know about quality checklist?
A second reader reviews the translation against the source before delivery. Terminology stays on the list agreed at intake and formatting is checked on the output file.
How is native proofreading handled?
Scans and phone photos are accepted for most documents. If legibility is a problem we tell you what to re-shoot rather than guessing at the text.
What does medical terminology qa cost?
We do not publish a fixed price for this because the work varies. After intake you get a written figure that does not change unless the document set changes.
Is legal terminology qa accepted by the receiving office?
Scans and phone photos are accepted for most documents. If legibility is a problem we tell you what to re-shoot rather than guessing at the text.
Can translation proofreading be done from a scan or photo?
Turnaround is confirmed at intake, not estimated here. Standard documents usually run in days; anything needing a third party takes longer and we say so before you commit.
