Our Label and Packaging Translation Process

Below is our standard process for label and packaging translation projects. Your project may vary, for example; if you only need translation services and you still have an art file, you can still provide the art file so we can extract the text for you. For a review of our general translation methodology, please review our translation methodology diagram.

Art Files
We accept files in most pouplar formats, including Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, PDF, EPS and QuarkXPress. For a more thorough list of file types that we work with, please visit our typesetting page.

Word files
Microsoft Word allows us to use various review and formatting tools. It also allows us to organize the translation in a 2 language format. For most projects that do not require typesetting, we will deliver them as word files that contain the formatting below. Below is an example of a Chinese text translated into English.

Translation Memory
PLG uses industry recognized commercial software, facilitated by its in-house developed utility programs, to provide you translation memory-assisted translation services. Consistency and cost savings are the major benefits of using translation memory. For more information about how PLG uses translation memory, please visit our translation memory page.

Client Communication and Delivery
The client has the option to send us the file through e-mail (if less than 10 MB) or our FTP, client delivery would be the same. Please contact us for FTP information. The client can also provide us their FTP for delivery of files. For more information about how to transfer files to PLG, please visit our File Transfer page.

Quality Assurance
The goal of the quality assurance team is to ensure that the best attention in quality was given to each and every project, no matter how big or small. If they find something that does not meet PLG's high quality standards, they will forward the project back to the project manager to help ensure that it meets PLG standards before it is delivered to the client.
