English-Polish Translation & Proofreading
You send us the files that you need translated and/or proofread and tell us your deadline and any special requirements. We analyse the files, ask you a few questions to fully understand your needs (e.g. if you have some reference materials) and present you a free quote. Then we agree on the price, sign a non-disclosure agreement if you like, and that's it! We take care of the rest. Have we mentioned that the layout of your documents is preserved?
Software Localisation
The localisation process looks pretty much the same except that we ask you to designate one person who will be able to answer our questions on a daily basis. Localisation is a demanding task and we need to be sure that we know all the string length limits, interpret all the user interface elements the right way, etc. Especially when for some reason you can't provide us with a working copy of your application.
