  • ORGANIZE YOUR TRANSLATIONS THROUGH YOUR WEB SITE :

    For common Anglo-Saxon and Latin languages, our translators write directly in the html code of your web pages, without additional cost with regards translation rates.

    If the site to be translated contains graphic elements, Javascript, flash, databases or others than those above, the following price scales will apply:

We apply discounts of 10, 15 and 20% for work that is upwards of 10, 30 and 50 pages. These rates do not include translation.
    The objective is to make your site as effective in its translated version as in the original, therefore, it may be necessary to adapt the graphic charter. For optimal localization of your on-line activity, please consult us.

    Rate A : 0.05 euros per proofread word

  • Estimates can be given for page numbering and desktop publishing work to be done on your translations.
  • REMARK: Because our translators are geographically located all over the world, we prefer documents in standard electronic form so that the translators may receive them directly by e-mail and process them as quickly as possible. If you have small hard copy documents, feel free to scan them and send them to us as compressed images (JPEG for example). This does not imply additional cost. Please remember that most scanners are delivered with OCR software (Optical Character Recognition).
