Our professionals use creative means to adjust the format of text to ensure that the target language messaging is presented professionally and visually appealing within the layouts of the source language. Where adjustments to the layouts are ideal, we provide suggested formats to the customer team. We ensure that the presentation of the graphics within the materials maintain the correct placement and messaging as that of the source language. We work closely as an extension to your project team to ensure that the deliverables achieve your objectives. In doing so, where appropriate, in-process confirmation checks and updates are performed.
