Proofreading is not only for translated documents: it is also a method of analyzing important documents where accuracy is vital, i.e. medical journals and material for publication. Proofreading is executed with accuracy at the end of each translation process in order to eliminate any typographical errors.
Great attention is given to faithfully transmitting the original text and to consistency of presentation and style.
The advantages of using Trados
Quality of Work: Consistency. Consistent terminology within a document and throughout a project is especially important in technical translation. This is true of legal and financial work as well as scientific and technical documentation. We are working across cultures, where synonyms and "turns of phrase" may burden the reader. CAT tools allow projects to standardize their glossaries and individual translators to use terms consistently with less effort.
I only accept work accompanied by a regular Purchase Order stating completion date requested and declaring payment terms and conditions.
