Where can I order a quality translation of the manual?

Question

Machine translation from one language to another

Hello, I would like to order a translation of the W3C manual, namely WebAudioApi and WebRTC. Where is the best place to order for a proper translation? If anyone has experienced something similar, please advise.

Answer 1

Are you talking about this: www.w3.org/TR/webaudio and www.w3.org/TR/webrtc ?
Pretty big text. Normally they will be translated in translation companies that have developed technical translation, that is, there is a department or working group where there are people with specialized education or expert knowledge. It will not be cheap (be prepared to pay more than 200 thousand rubles), but the text will first be translated by a technical translator, then checked and corrected by a technical editor, and, most likely, someone else will proofread it. And everything will be ready in one to one and a half weeks, if the office is not overwhelmed with orders.
If there is no big money, then an intelligent freelancer can do enoughgood for 200-300 rubles / 1000 characters, but it will work twice as long, and you will most likely have to read the result for blunders, typos and semantic errors (from which no one is immune from such large documents). And look for such a freelancer - too.
I would take it myself, but I'm not sure you'll be willing to pay me 90 mowers and wait until the end of the January holidays for the finished work. Cheaper doesn't work for me. So it goes!

It remains to find a sensible freelancer. It’s better not to take risks and turn to a translation agency that has experience in this area, for example, TransLink ( http://www.t-link.ru) , which was engaged in the localization of applications for Windows, otherwise saving can play evil joke.
