Why is a pre-translation proofreading step beneficial?
A thorough proofreading step is the best preparation for a seamless translation process. Even in a document that “looks good” at a glance, there can be hidden traps, stumbling blocks and other time-consuming obstacles that only become apparent at the translation stage. Our translation experts have many years of experience in evaluating texts.
Our proofreaders check for spelling, grammar and punctuation and also check that no terminology errors have crept in.
With their experience and expertise, preferably combined with a customer briefing, the experts at STAR will get your texts translation-ready: Formatting and layout errors are systematically removed, unnecessary variations in phrasing are eliminated and style guides for translation-suitable writing are applied. This process removes errors at source that would otherwise have been transferred into the target language translations.
