To prevent potential mistakes during transfer of translation from one software to another, we are able to translate in the same document format as the source language document.
We maintain the original formatting including fonts, spacing and emphasis. This is particularly useful when creating marketing documents such as packaging labels or ads were space is limited and the document design must take into account the difference in language length (number of words). We are able to translate into existing design and manipulate design to the language's space requirements. For example, the French translation is generally lengthier than the English version.
