SDS Linguistics Inc. - Translation Services

WHY SDS?

Corporate experience

Our staff has extensive knowledge of various industries. Translation is often our second (or third, or fourth) calling in life. As such, we all have a keen understanding of the various realities of today’s businesses. We know what it’s like to be under the gun and we will do everything in our power to help you meet your deadline and make the whole process as smooth and painless as possible.

Easy to use

Getting a high quality translation is as easy as a click of the mouse. You send us a document via e-mail, tell us when you need it returned, and we will translate it for you and send the document back to you, in its original format, on time. We work in all MS application as well as various design software. (Please see “We go the extra mile” for more info)

Quick turnaround

We like meeting deadlines. We like a challenge. We can’t help it, that’s just who we are. Put us to the test or just look at our clients’ testimonials. We will do everything in our power to meet your deadlines.

Research

We like to have a working knowledge of the material we’re translating. If you send us a marketing campaign, we will want to know about the background, the target consumer, the intended message and the objectives. If we have to translate about a new technology, we’ll research it and read up on it so that we understand how it works before we translate it. Since we specialize in technical translation, we have experienced and qualified technical consultants on staff. We also use various consultants with different fields of expertise. For high impact projects, a panel of several native consultants will review the translation to make sure it is achieving the results our client is looking for.

Formatting

It’s a little thing for us but it saves you a lot of time. Whatever the format you send the document to us in, we will input the translation into it. Since French is usually about 25% longer than English, we will adjust the margins or the fonts to make everything fit, so you don’t have to. When you get the file back, you’ve got nothing to do but send it to the intended recipients. That’s what we call service.*

Everything in-house, from start to finish

We can take care of your entire project, from start to finish*. For instance, if you have a French binder to produce, we will translate it, page set it or design it, print it and ship it. You have a video you need dubbed? We’ll transcribe it, translate it, dub it, mix it to match lips as closely as possible, burn the CD/DVD and send it back to you. You have the final French product in your hand and all you did was click the send button...
