Approving translations is easier online

Efficient teamwork results in high quality

Obtaining translation approvals and handling related coordination between technical departments, translation service providers, and reviewers used to be an expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone process.

This was explained in part by the many different tools and approaches:

• Graphical designers use DTP applications
• Translators use their own translation environments with specialized language databases and terminology tools
• Reviewers prefer to read translations on paper or in PDF format, which prevents them from accessing terminology

As a result, changes must be entered at three different places, which inevitably leads to questions, wasted time, and mistakes. When translation projects have several target languages, this can be an insurmountable organizational challenge!

globalReview is the solution! This innovative, Web-based platform gives professional translators an entirely new workflow for handling documents in layout formats. Thanks to globalReview, it is now possible to combine all three of the areas listed above and review translations online . InDesign original files can also be reviewed in layout. Review results then flow automatically into the DTP environment as well as into specialized translation databases.

Through an innovative interaction of databases, interfaces, and the online editor, globalReview allows experts and managers involved in the translation process to work together efficiently regardless of their location or preferred tool. Terminology and information about matches from the translation memory are accessible during this process. Changes from translators and reviewers are automatically merged in the DTP and translation environments. This ensures a cost-effective and high-quality translation workflow.
