Our services
Translation - language combinations
We only translate into our mother tongue (French) and we specialise only in what we do best: translations of English and Spanish material into French.
Design/DTP and translation
For specific projects or suites of multi-lingual documents, we can provide a complete translation and design/DTP service, taking care of both your language needs and overall appearance of your document, whether it be from an existing template (required in InDesign CS5 or earlier) or new layout designed by our partner, IDFP Creative Design.
