TRANSLATION PROJECT PREFLIGHT

BEFORE YOU QUOTE IT, SCAN IT.

Client files often contain work that ordinary word counts do not reveal. LocProof Preflight checks Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF and ZIP projects for hidden content, scanned pages, speaker notes, protected content and production risks before you commit to scope or price.
