Further information for customers
Translation means the transfer of a written text from a source language into a target language. In doing so, the translator has in mind the cultural background of each language so the recipient of the text in the target language will understand it as intended by the authors who wrote it in the source language.
To make sure your order can be processed smoothly, please consider the following:
- Make sure the source text is understandable and free from mistakes. The quality of the original is a decisive factor in the quality of the translation.
- Don’t have tight deadlines. The translator needs sufficient time to be able to deliver really good quality.
- If possible, indicate a competent contact person to be available for questions. If a translator has questions, it does not mean that he or she is insecure, but rather that his or her work is reliable and professional.
- If you can provide terminology lists, glossaries and style guides, please make them available to the translator. It might also be useful for you to draw attention to specialist literature relevant to the subject.
