This means taking into account cultural factors, the local relevance of ideas and issues, and much more besides.

It’s not just the text either. The specialists who deliver our localisation services in Singapore and worldwide adapt images and icons, dates and times, colour schemes, fonts, audio, video files and more for markets around the globe.

Just what you need to succeed when trying to reach any audience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between translation and localisation?

Translation involves converting your text from one language to another. The aim is to create a text with equivalent meaning.

Localisation goes much further. The goal is to fully adapt your text to a local audience, considering cultural and regional issues as well as many other factors to make the text appear completely natural to a native eye.

The localisation process can be applied to images and video content as well as text.

What can we translate?

We can translate files in any format.

From plain Word files and PDFs to Desktop Publishing files from software like Quark Xpress or Adobe Framemaker. We can work with Javascript, HTML, XHTML and other web formats as well as all kinds of software in almost any format you care to name.

Need an unusual type of file translating? Get in touch with us and confirm that we can work with it. There’s no commitment to using us.

Do you work with companies or private individuals?

The vast majority of our clients are companies or organisations, but we are also happy to work with individual clients.

No matter how big a client you are to us, you get the same award-winning, personalised customer service every time.

How much will my translation cost?

The long answer is that your translation cost will vary depending on things like the volume of material you need to have translated, your target language/s as well as several other important factors.

The short answer is that it’s always best to get in touch for a free quote. There’s no fee or obligation – and you can get a clearly costed price breakdown of your specific project so you know exactly where you stand.
