These manuals typically contain industry-specific information and terminology, which require highly specific translation responses.

42% of Canadians speak a language other than English as their native tongue. The two official languages in Canada are English and French.
Product Manual Translation Services
Product manuals can be more challenging because the end user is the customer. This means that the translator must consider the end user's level of knowledge and adjust the translation to ensure that it is understandable in the target language by the end user. Additionally, the translator must be aware of risk management factors since the accuracy of the translation directly impacts the end user, who must be able to follow the manual safely and effectively. To ensure this happens, we use only native speakers of the target language to guarantee that our translations are accurate and understandable by the specific audience who will read your manual.
