Do you have translation needs that require the skills of a professional
English to French
translator? You are looking for the best
compromise between quality and price? Your priority is receiving
a quality translation on time?
If you answerered yes to one or
several of these questions, then don't lose a second,
and let me know about the job to perform. I will need the necessary
information such as:
- the whole file to be translated so as to provide a quote, or
- a sample if the final draft is not yet finished (final quote
will depend on the final document!), or
- the url of your website in case of web
site translation and/or website
promotion),
- the deadline
- the subject matter if the document is not available
Optional (if you have sent the whole file)
- the nature of the job and the technicity of the job (html files,
*.txt, *.doc, *.html, *.php, Powerpoint Presentation, Excel files,
Word files)
- the subject and the terms of payment if other than Net 30 days.
If the volume is more
than I can handle alone, or if you are contacting me for a
language pair I do not handle personally, I will work with
my fellow freelance
translators from BeTranslated.
