Materials you can submit for translation

Instructions and manuals

Operating, installation and maintenance texts.

Specifications and descriptions

Equipment specifications, product descriptions and component lists.

If text is embedded in diagrams, drawings or scans, discuss file preparation and the output format first. Layout work and graphics processing require a separate agreement.

Help preserve meaning and terminology

Frequently asked questions

Can I translate a document from English into Russian?

Check the required language pair in the order form. For Russian-to-English text, swap the source and target languages; prices may differ between directions.

What should I do with a PDF or scanned manual?

Check whether text can be extracted from the file and whether text within images needs translation. Discuss preparation and the required format with support before ordering.

How long will the translation take?

The time depends on the volume, languages and requirements. If you need the document by a particular date, tell us before placing the order.

Will tables and drawings be preserved?

Formatting requirements need to be agreed separately. Text translation alone does not include drawing layout, CAD file editing or verification of engineering calculations.
