Meeting professional requirements

Do you require a high quality German translation? I am available to translate your texts from English into my first language, German. Since the German language requires more space than English, I can adjust the text layout of the target document for you. At present, I do not offer verified translations of official certificates or legal translations as a part of my service.

Type of text

Whether product information, letter, web site text, article, magazine, image brochure, evaluation and survey, biography, travel guide, documentation, operating manual, assembly instructions, plant description, press release, guideline, advertising text, mailing or newsletter - no matter what type of text you would like to have translated, your enquiry will always be answered promptly and carefully. I can offer you a quotation free of charge, without any obligation.

Scope of services

The choice is yours:

  • translation of your text incl. quality testing
  • translation of your text incl. quality testing plus adjustment of the text layout in the target document

Of course, your own desires and specifications are of paramount importance with each translation. All of these will be arranged beforehand. Your corporate vocabulary as well as guidelines for product names and abbreviations are always welcome, since these can be incorporated into terminology databases and assure compliance with your corporate language. On request, I will also update and maintain your word lists.

Document formats

Preferably MS Word (DOC, DOCX); you might of course send your texts in other common formats, such as TXT, RTF, PPT, XLS, XLSX, PDF, Trados, Across or InDesign files. Further document formats can be processed on request. If you only own the printout, you are welcome to send it by mail.

Prices

Prices depend on type, length and complexity of the source text. Usually, I use the word count of the source text as the basis for your quote. On request, calculations can also be done per standard line, page or per work hours.

The easiest way to find out about the price for the translation of your text is by sending an enquiry, which is free of charge. Please send the documents to be translated by e-mail. If your files are very large, you will receive an upload link. Your documents will always be treated with the strictest confidence. The preparation of your quote does not take long.

Order processing

Upon your enquiry, you will receive a quotation which is free of charge and not binding. If you accept it and place the order, you will receive my confirmation. Unless otherwise agreed, the translation will be delivered to you via e-mail. At the same time, the invoice will be sent to you by regular mail. The invoiced amount is payable to my German bank account.
