Post title: Thank you Dominique...The process is not the end product....
Hello Dominique
Thank you. Very much.
The listing is on one half of the document with space on the other for entering the translation. Word.
I am using the latest updated version of Wordfast Pro
Do you think that there should be reluctance by the agency to provide an original document, Dominique, given that an awful amount of information comes from viewing documents as a whole and adds greatly to context? And of course this format completely ignores translators' working methods. Personally I believe that anything getting in the way of quality translation is a bad idea.
Review would surely not be by machine, Dominique? I specialize in legal work and most agencies accept that they would be wasting their time checking legal aspects...they generally put on their spell checks and that's it.
I am NOT a process/systems person, D and I certainly won't be buying Trados, Déja Vu, MemoQ and the half dozen other products....the shortest distance from original doc to end product is what interests me.
