Create aesthetically pleasing multilingual marketing collateral with InDesign translation services

As businesses expand throughout the world to reach more customers, marketing pieces, training manuals and other designed assets can get lost in translation, especially when the source document is an Adobe InDesign file. To engage more meaningfully with customers and communicate more effectively with employees, it’s critical for companies to utilize Adobe InDesign translation services. Many Fortune 500 companies have discovered there’s no better partner for that than Acclaro.

Examples of InDesign files we translate:

Technical expertise meets simplified processes

Our team will make sure your final localized InDesign document is visually similar to the original without compromising its efficacy with your target audience. Our linguists begin the process by translating your material, after which our graphics and production teams layout your InDesign file (.indd) to accommodate text expansion and bidirectional languages (such as Arabic and Hebrew). Because some languages utilize more characters and localization isn’t as simple as changing fonts, the layout or aesthetics of your InDesign files can be affected when translated.

As part of the DTP process, we’ll resize type and reformat or replace text styles. During this stage, the DTP team will also correct word and line breaks and format translated tables of contents and other graphic images that require separate manipulation. Once the file meets our demanding standards, we share it for final approval and make any necessary edits. Upon approval, the new, localized InDesign file is delivered.

Tools that lighten your workload

The quality of Acclaro’s InDesign translation services are unrivaled, and the process itself is equally impressive. We not only work within InDesign files and have the experience to ensure accurate translations, but we have the tools to help make each step of our document translation service more efficient, too. Our My Acclaro translation management portal makes uploading and retrieving the large files common to InDesign easy. We also optimize the process with translation memory, which is essentially a database that stores segments of translated text from one project for use on future projects. In other words, we can make localizing an InDesign file extremely efficient, so you get your files back quicker and, ultimately, save money.

The global marketplace is as competitive as ever, so any advantage a company gains can lead to increased market share and increased revenue.
