Desktop publishing services are offered either in conjunction with major linguistics or copywriting services or as standalone services.
Formatting Services
Translating from English into Russian or Belarusian language can expand volume of text by up to 40%. If not managed correctly, this has a negative impact on the appearance of documents especially those with graphics and tables. Without relevant linguistic knowledge, in-house typesetting departments cannot guarantee that text placement is correct and linguistic conventions are respected.
Knowing that text is where it should be is vital to effective communication and formatting services guarantee correct formatting of any document irrespective of its format complexity.
Graphic Proofreading
Accurate graphic proofreading is vital to advertisement success. Every time one puts text into a layout, there is the potential for errors to be introduced into carefully prepared text since Russian and Belarusian languages have specific punctuation rules.
Graphic proofreading process involves review of the laid out files after each round of revisions to ensure that no errors were introduced during the process.
