Our file engineering expertise combines state of the art technology with the latest file processing software, skilfully administered by our specialist file engineers and translators, improving publication timescales and reducing time to market.

We can effortlessly process numerous file types, from Quark Xpress, InDesign and XML through to .xliff, .resx and YAML, integrating them with our Translation Memory and Terminology technology to offer you optimum quality, consistency and cost benefits. Our expertise covers protecting tags, text and source code so they remain unaltered during software translation, as well as exporting and importing website content in one seamless procedure. Rigorous testing and review of the translated content is also undertaken, giving you the peace of mind that your content will be delivered in exactly the same format and with exactly the same functionality as the original.
