Editing, writing and rewriting

I proofread, edit, and -- when necessary -- rewrite your written materials to make them clear, concise, and comprehensible to an international audience. I suggest modifications to your document to remove terms, expressions and graphic materials that may be inappropriate in a document for international distribution.

 

Depending on your needs, I can develop many types of original documents from your drafts and notes.

 

My editing services include an evaluation of your materials from the point of view of an international reader. I offer recommendations on how to organize and structure your materials as well as suggest graphics and other design devices to improve the performance of your documents in the global marketplace. The aim is to make your documents effective and reader-friendly.

Development of extended glossaries and tables of contents

I develop extended glossaries of the special terms, symbols and expressions used in your business or technology. These glossaries aid readers and are indispensable to technical translators.

 

Document usability testing

In association with other consultants and specialists, I can test the general usability of your materials on various international reader groups that may approximate your target audience.
