What translation project are you working on right now?
Technical; 30.000+ words; manuals/user guides/operating/ servicing/installing the facility/Security/Warranties/Liabilities/Conformity/ from French and English 50%-50%. Target language: Croatian. Exotic formats like "Indesign" from Adobe Creative Cloud, Publisher and DOCX. A stressing but interesting project. The deadline: June 21st. The client contacted me at first some three weeks ago, sent me files but failed to appear for these 21 days and now he is back with a much shorter time to translate. Though it is the Client who hesitated unless he finally sold some equipment and now is in need of a Croatian documentation and a Croatian user guide because these are very complex and sophisticated industrial high-tech solutions like hydraulic arms for towing cars, hoists and a lot more.The project is sensitive since the deadline is tight and I have to render the translation in formats they were given to me. 22 documents which add up to 250, pages but there are a lot of illustrations and instruction manuals with much less text to translate. It is going to be work&work for the next 36 days and I still keep to my day-job in a financial industry which provides me a stable income and a a peace of mind alongside. The excellent news for me is that I am going to work for my company from home due to the Corona situation and now they bought for every employee a nice new HP Elitebook with Core i7 so, now I wont waste 2 hours a day commuting and it will make this task ahead of me a lot easier.
