Translation Management for Technical Documentation

In the framework of the VDMA (German Machinery and Plant Construction Association), itl participates in the first comprehensive guide on the topic of "Translation Management for Technical Documentation".

The VDMA publication, a decision aid for companies in the field of machinery and plant construction, is designed as a first orientation and introduction to the topic. The 66-page guide initially describes the conditions for a high-quality translation. It deals with the relevant standards, the requirements of documentation suitable for translation, organizational rules as well as form, objectives and content of an editorial guide.

"We want to use this guide to give our customers a comprehensive overview of all areas of translation management and thus a professional reference frame for multilingual information creation," says Peter Kreitmeier, head of the translation sector at itl.  The guide is available from the VDMA at http://www.vdma-verlag.com/home/p378.html.
