Layout-heavy files come back translated and typeset in the source layout, so your linguists review language instead of fixing frames, and your margin stays in the job.

Questions agencies ask us
Can our own linguists edit the translation?
Yes. The output is the same editable file type, so your reviewers work in InDesign, Word or PowerPoint as usual.
Do you support XLIFF?
Not yet. Today Pagebirdy works on the source files directly and hands back the translated file.
Can we keep our own terminology?
Yes. Add terms to a glossary once and every translation in the workspace uses them, so product names, regulated phrases and house style stay the same across files and languages.
Which languages can we translate into?
40+ languages, including right-to-left scripts. Arabic and Hebrew come back with the layout mirrored the way a native designer would set it, not just the text reversed.
