I am a translator from English into French with 15 years of experience. I am based in Quebec but since all my work is done via e-mail and fax, I can do work for clients anywhere in the world. I can work from a Word, WordPerfect, PowerPoint, Excel or pdf file. My fee includes the actual translation and the proofing after formatting, before going to print. I offer quality translations, competitive pricing and a quick turnaround. If you require more information or if you have a project you would like to discuss with me, you can e-mail me or call me at 819-379-9377. |
