FAQs Aeronautical translation
What types of content do you translate for the aviation industry?
Our marketing translation services cover: technical specifications, airworthiness directives, manuals (wiring, maintenance, troubleshooting, training, etc.), spare parts catalogues, patents, software, and much more.
How much does an aerospace translation cost?
Our translation pricing system is based on the number of words contained in the source documents. We reduce the cost of translations with our CAT software that uses translation memories and helps to detect any repetitions in files. This allows us to offer you better turnaround times and make sure the work is consistent. For our regular clients, we use translation memories as a reference for every new order. Prices also depend on the chosen translation solution, adapted to the content and use context.
How can translation costs be reduced?
Several steps help to reduce translation costs:
– Preparing your documents so they’re fully editable – translating PDF documents is more expensive because they need to be reformatted first.
– Entrusting the translation to a language service provider that manages translation memories for you and allows you to easily reuse previous translations.
– Selecting translation solutions and their level of accuracy according to the use of documents and content.
How is the confidentiality of the translations ensured?
All confidential documents entrusted to us are protected by professional secrecy as defined in article 226-13 of the French Penal Code, as well as by the commitments and terms and conditions stipulated in EuropaTrad’s T&C. To back up these commitments, we sign specific confidentiality agreements with our clients on request.
How much time does a translation take?
Translation speed depends directly on the complexity of the source text, and the translation solution used.
Depending on the quality required and the length of the documents to translate, the turnaround time could be anything from 24h (e.g., for a 2- to 4-page document) to several days. Whatever the format of the content and the level of quality expected, our quotes systematically mention the time needed for the translation.
