The following are some examples of our translation services. In addition to these, we provide a wide range of IT related translation. Please feel free to contact us to discuss your needs.
User manual translation
We are specialists in IT and localization, meaning that there is very little need to rewrite specialist terminology. Once our translation service begins, the burden on our client’s own staff is reduced, freeing them to proceed smoothly with other tasks.
Press release translation
We receive many requests for press release translations with the highest urgency. We have a rich and full track record in this field, so rest assured that we can handle the characteristic phrasing of press releases.
Marketing materials translation
When translating from one language to another, sentence length may change from the original, thus spoiling the visual appearance. In marketing materials, visual impact is extremely important. That is why we pay particular attention to balance, etc., in our translation.
