01Does it matter whether my file is a PDF or an editable document?+
Editable source files can make it easier to preserve tables, headings and layout. Scanned PDFs may require text recognition and additional layout work. We confirm the scope after reviewing the files.
02Can you use our company terminology list?+
Mention any terminology lists or previous translations in your enquiry. We agree which references to use and how terminology will be approved before work begins.
03Can text within technical drawings be translated?+
Annotations and labels can be considered as part of the scope. Tell us the source file format and whether you need it edited; the working plan depends on the format.
