Japanese to English, English to Japanese
Most of our manual work is Japanese to English, for machines and products made in Japan and used in India and elsewhere. We also translate English manuals into Japanese for Indian manufacturers supplying Japanese customers.
Send files in the format you have. We return the translation in the same format, with tables, callouts and numbering intact.
What goes wrong in manuals, and how we prevent it
One term for one part
We agree a glossary with you before starting and hold to it, so a part has the same name on page 3 and page 300.
Warnings that match the standard
Safety statements follow the usual signal words: 危険 as Danger, 警告 as Warning, 注意 as Caution.
Numbers left exactly as they are
Part numbers, torque values, tolerances and units are checked against the source in the editing pass.
