Full-scale technical translations from English to Czech
I translate technical texts from English to Czech language. With the top-notch accuracy I am able to translate everything from simple documents to voluminous technical manuals and documentation.
I offer proofreading and/or editing of already translated technical documents. These services include careful checking of the text not only in terms of correct grammar, stylistics, accurate terminology used in the given field and overall quality of writing, but above all the meaning.
I also test the correct functionality of the translated text for the final product. In other words, I check whether the target text is in the right form in the right place and whether its original meaning is preserved.
I'm a professional freelance translator with vast experience in handling technical translations from English into Czech and vice versa. I've been providing my quality services to my clients since 2002. My technical education and in-depth knowledge of technical terminology, combined with several years of expertise and active collaboration with many engineering technicians, as well as direct clients and agencies have taught me that quality, a deep understanding of front-end technologies, accuracy, reliability and meeting deadlines are the most important factors for manufacturers, agencies and the ultimate market.
It is my goal to provide services to match your needs and - in turn - ensure your complete satisfaction.
I don't belong to the group of translators, who translate text word by word and I don't translate texts that fall outside my specialty.
I always adhere to delivery terms
according to the agreed conditions and requirements.
