- I understand there are traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. Can you do both?
- Other than technical documents, can you translate other types like legal, medical, etc?
- Do you use translation software to do the job?
- Can you do both English to Chinese and Chinese to English?
- How do you charge for this service?
- (I understand there are traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. Can you do both?) --- Yes. Actually, traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese are just the same language expressed in different fonts. There is no difference in the translation process. Once translated, we can provide the document in either version, or both if necessary. (Back to Top)
- (Other than technical documents, can you translate other types like legal, medical, etc?) --- Yes. But those will be sub-contracted to specialized firms in those areas. We would monitor the technical terms involved though, as our experience shows that translators for legal documents are not necessarily conversant with technical terms as well. (Back to Top)
- (Do you use translation software to do the job?) --- No. We've tried a few of these software's, but were not quite satisfied with the result, and feel that it will be still some time before this technology is mature enough for practical use. All our translation is done manually with qualified staff.
- (Can you do both English to Chinese and Chinese to English?) --- Yes. (Back to Top)
- (How do you charge for this service?) --- We'd quote a charge per 100 words. There's a minimum charge of US$50. For document more than 3,000 words, there is usually a quantity discount. The format also affects the quote, e.g., the charge will be different for translating a drawing, an artwork, a specification, etc. (Back to Top)
