Translation of technical documents and manuals
Translating technical and administrative documents and product manuals is not the favourite task of any business. But if you’re working with foreign countries or selling products on the international market, the translation of documents such as certificates of labour compliance (DURC, in Italy) or instructions for machinery cannot be overlooked, as tedious as it may be.
Technical texts and manuals
Technical translation is necessary for companies that operate with international customers or on international markets. In some cases, these administrative documents are needed for operational or bureaucratic reasons: safety documents required by law, technical data sheets for using machinery, administrative practices required to take part in international tenders and so on. But technical translation also involves manuals, namely any document needed by end users to use the product or service sold by the company. This category includes product data sheets, labels, instructions for use, user guides and technical data sheets.
