Turnaround Times
Turnaround time depends on the number of words and style of
language (e.g., how much technical language or industry jargon). Our average
translation speed is 2000 words per day per client.
Here are some guidelines for translation of different sizes
of documents:
Small Documents (500
– 5,000 words)
We generally translate 1,500 - 2,000 words a day. With every project large and
small, we perform a quality check to ensure that the document is error-free and
the format has been maintained. Therefore, you can reasonably expect 2000 words
to be completed in 48 hours. The earlier we receive your document, the better.
Rushing is the worst enemy of quality, which is our main concern.
Medium-Sized Documents
(5,000 – 10,000 words)
Should you require a short deadline, documents ranging from 5,000 to 10,000
words will likely need to be handled by several translators, otherwise a single
translator will perform the job. To ensure consistency, we maintain files on our
Customers. Two to three additional days may be necessary for verification. It is
reasonable to expect the translation of a 10,000-word document within 7 business
days.
Large Documents (10,000
words and beyond)
Thanks to our geographical distribution, we can complete large translation
projects by working in teams. In such a scenario, each translator is assigned an
additional task: project management, building a bilingual glossary, or some
other aspect of your job. This comprehensive approach and close collaboration
enable us to deliver superior results.
