Typesetting
Our typesetters handle all European languages; two byte languages such as Chinese, Korean and Japanese; and languages that flow from right to left, such as Arabic, Hebrew and Urdu. Whatever your typestting requirement, please ask us for a quotation.
We calculate our typesetting rates by the page, depending on the complexity of the layout (graphs, tables, figures, pictures, etc), the format in which we are working and the languages involved.
Being equally happy to adapt source language artwork or create new artwork from scratch, our typesetters work on both Macintosh and Windows platforms.
Our typesetting experts work in a variety of formats, including
- Quark
- PageMaker
- Illustrator
- Acrobat
- InDesign
- Photoshop
- Page Plus
- FrameMaker
- CorelDraw
- PowerPoint
- Word and many other packages.
Completed typeset artwork can be returned in an appropriate file format – such as eps, hi-res PDF or tiff – or as camera-ready copy.
Case study
London-based Atlas Translations was chosen by a museum to translate, proofread
and typeset a series of museum guides. Working from English Quark templates,
Atlas Translations’ typesetters set the translated Chinese, Korean, Japanese,
French, Spanish and German versions into the pages. The museum is so
satisfied with the standard and knowledge of our typesetters, they return to
us for their desktop publishing requirements on an annual basis.
