When Precision Counts
Well-written, French to English translations that meet the highest of international standards.
Before beginning a translation, Robin carries out an industry benchmark, checks all texts for coherency and verifies names, titles, institutional names and all other details. Translations can be delivered in Word, PDF, or PPT format or inserted into a client's InDesign or Illustrator mock-up. In general, Robin does a preliminary proof-read of the final document before the client's proofreaders intervene.

When only the best copy will do
A collaborative, critical evaluation and revamp of your documents.
Robin will focus on the text's logical flow, identify inconsistencies, unnecessary repetition, incomplete or extraneous parts, and evaluate tone for the target audience. In the case of previously translated texts, she also will check for exactitude, syntax and vocabulary. These revisions may involve significant rewriting and restructuring, providing a single authorial voice or tailoring text to a specific demographic.
