Proofreading and QA

Proofreading and QA are the final stages of the whole translation process. We go through them to identify, address and correct mistakes made by the linguist(s) or author(s). Mistakes may concern: meaning, style, grammar, lexis, spelling and punctuation. A text may also have layout and terminology issues, e.g. when a different font size has been used or when the client’s glossary and instructions have not been followed.

Proofreading and QA are vital for a translation or copywriting job and it is imperative that they be performed by a different linguist. Thus, we ensure that no errors go unnoticed.

Proofreading and QA are also done with machine translation (software-generated translation). This is what we call post-editing. Therefore, if you have received machine translation from another translation agency or if you are a translation agency that offers machine translation, Lynx Translations Ltd. can help.
