On Special DTP Needs

A new client called us years ago with, what appeared to be, a straightforward request; the translation of a manual, set up as a dtp job complete with illustrations etc.
Only one catch; he needed to find an economical way of having the job done over and over again with only small differences!

The jobs were all different, but based on a selection af basic machinery, and we found a solution, producing each manual on the basis of former versions and securing consistency as well as reducing the price.

After many years of doing a few of these per month, we probably know the machinery better than the engineer who designs it. The client gets his translations at a price per word not worth mentioning, but thanks to our dtp facilities, we are doing alright on these jobs, as our workload is reduced by using a large percentage of previously translated text.
