English-French
Budget: €12 – €18 EUR
I need a complete, publication-ready French version of an English technical user manual. All headings, step-by-step instructions, warnings, and notes must carry over with the same structure and layout, yet read as if originally written for a French-speaking audience.
The job demands more than word-for-word conversion. Each sentence has to convey the exact meaning, maintain the technical tone, and respect any culture-specific nuances so the final text feels natural, clear, and accurate. No extra ideas, no missing details.
I will supply the original manual in an editable format. Please return:
• the fully translated document with identical formatting
• a clean, proofread French text—free of spelling or grammar issues
• any terminology list or TM you built along the way if you work in a CAT tool such as SDL Trados or memoQ (helpful but not mandatory)
Acceptance criteria
1. Terminology is consistent throughout.
2. Instructions remain unambiguous after translation.
3. Formatting mirrors the source file.
4. Final file passes a native-level read-through without edits.
Let me know your estimated turnaround time and the CAT tools, glossaries, or QA checks you intend to use so I can slot the project into our release schedule.
