German language translations are generally straightforward for the experienced translator – both for German into English translation and English into 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
All major graphic design programs can directly take German text, and the vast majority of English fonts can be used for German. Some fonts though do not have the letter ß.
Typesetting German is generally straightforward although it can be a challenge in narrow text columns due to the many lengthy compound words in the language. The typesetter must know where individual words can be hyphenated as of course hyphenation must follow German and not English rules.
