How It Works

How It Works

Stepes will assign a dedicated project manager who will work with you to understand your book translation goals and any specific requirements. The project manager will then assemble the best translators and desktop publishing specialists and develop a project plan based your deadline and budget requirements. Each book translation will include a sample translation review early in the project cycle to ensure the translated content meets the author’s expectations in terms of language quality and linguistic style. Upon completion, a second linguist is brought in to proofread the draft translation and make any edits for the initial translator to review and implement. Next, our desktop publishing team will format the book using international typesetting best practices. Stepes can output print-ready PDF files for the translated book for online distribution or traditional offset printing.
