If It Doesn’t Look Good, It Won’t Get Read. It’s That Simple.

If you want people to read it, make it visually appealing. Cultural graphical layout and design matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you help with DTP and graphics?

Yes. When producing a brochure in a foreign language it is very important to ensure that the text alignment within the layout is correct.  When the characters are different than the source language (i.e. English versus Chinese), the layout may need to be reset or aligned ensuring that the new text is properly displayed.  Our Linguistic DTP specialists can work with various DTP tools, and also know the target language for your final document.
