> Languages > German Translations & Typesetting Services
German translations offer no particular issues
or difficulties to a professional German translator, neither
for German to English translation, nor for English to German
translation.
German is spoken principally in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and whilst there are a large number of different dialects of spoken German, written German is largely uniform. Therefore except in rare cases a single German translation can be used in all three countries.
German Typesetting
German can be typeset as raw text in all major graphic design
programs, and there are no particular difficulties involved
in typesetting German, although typesetting in narrow text columns
can be a challenge due to the many lengthy compound words in
German. Hyphenation must of course follow German and not English
rules.
Typesetting German involves the same font selection and layout considerations as apply for English artwork. Where we are working with an existing English graphic design file, the same fonts can almost always be used for the German translation.
