InDesign is one of the most versatile desktop publishing tools on the market, allowing companies to create visually compelling business documents with professional graphic designs and layout. InDesign documents can be easily exported to PDF, ePub, XML and other digital formats to be distributed electronically or used to produce high resolution prints. While InDesign is a great publishing tool, translating InDesign files professionally does require more than just linguistic knowledge, it also demands expert experience working with CAT tools for localization efficiency and multilingual desktop publishing skills, including formatting right-to-left (RTL) languages such as Arabic and Hebrew.

Creative Suite and Creative Cloud Translation
Stepes translates both InDesign CS and InDesign CC files for the legacy Adobe Creative Suite and the latest Creative Cloud respectively. We even have experience translating the predecessor of InDesign that used to be called PageMaker. Our cloud translation system can automatically extract text and graphic content from InDesign CS and CC files to produce instant project quotes in real time. Next, our professional linguists translate the pre-processed content into the target languages while leveraging translation memory and online glossary termbase. Upon completion, our intelligent translation system automatically creates localized InDesign files preserving the original layout before our desktop publishers are involved to format the translated pages to perfection. We save all bilingual data so future projects can leverage existing translations for cost savings and linguistic consistency.
InDesign Based User Manual Translation
Adobe InDesign has come a long way from a desktop publishing tool for laying out brochures, flyers, posters, and magazines with complex graphic designs and sophisticated formatting. It has become a leading technical writing tool for authoring text content, heavy user manuals, and product guides. In some ways, InDesign is replacing FrameMaker and other CMS tools for authoring enterprise documentation, thanks to its versatility and ease of use. Stepes has in-depth experience translating large technical manuals authored in Adobe InDesign, ranging from a few thousand to over half a million words. We are able to process InDesign conditional text and conditional formatting in all languages including right-to-left languages like Arabic and Hebrew with efficiency. Just send us your InDesign technical manuals or product catalogs and specify the target languages, we will take care of the rest.
