Who it's for / what we translate
A manual or spec set is only useful if the same part, the same warning and the same term read identically everywhere they appear — and if you can put a number on the cost before the file lands on your desk. That’s what this page is built to answer.
What we translate
- User manuals
- Technical specifications
- Product documentation
- Safety instructions
- Datasheets
- Standard operating procedures
- Text elements of engineering drawings
- Release notes
Typical buyer
An engineering, manufacturing or product team preparing a release, budgeting translation against a real word count instead of a vague estimate.
What's included
- 01 A translator with relevant technical or engineering background for your product area.
- 02 Terminology handling — a glossary built from your first document, or applied from one you already have, kept consistent across the whole set.
- 03 Formatting preserved as far as the source file allows, so files drop back into your layout with minimal rework.
- 04 A 14-day revision window if a term or phrasing needs adjusting after delivery.

Quality & handling
Technical translation is assigned to a translator with genuine familiarity in your product area — engineering, manufacturing, software or a related field — rather than whoever is free that day. A glossary is maintained per project so terminology holds across every document you send us, this release and the next. Files are handled confidentially by default.
Language pairs
Standard rate applies to Tier A (EN↔DE). Tier B and C pairs carry a multiplier; Tier D pairs are quoted individually.

| Tier C | DE ↔ PL, DE ↔ TR, DE ↔ RU, DE ↔ PT | ×1.30 |
| Tier D | All other pairs | Quote only |
Technical Translation FAQ
A project glossary, built from your first document or applied from one you supply, is checked against every page we translate — for this order and for future updates to the same documentation.
Yes — enter your word count above for a live estimate at €0.16/word (Tier A), or send the files for an exact quote.
Any common office, PDF or plain-text format. If you’re working from a CMS or documentation platform, export the text and send it — ask if you’re not sure how.
€49.00 minimum on technical work — roughly 300 words at the base rate.
Yes. Once a glossary exists for your product, every subsequent order reuses and extends it, so terminology doesn’t drift between releases.
Manufacturing, engineering, software and product documentation are our common ground. Tell us your field in the quote request; we’ll say plainly if it’s outside our depth rather than guess at it.
