My Resources

I use the sort of IT resources that are trusted by translators and industry the world over. My Windows 11 operating system ensures compatibility with the vast majority of files you may send me, and benefits from the protection of AVG Internet Security. 

​

I make extensive use of Wordfast, a Computer-Aided Translation tool used widely across the translation industry. By "recycling" previous translations, it not only speeds up the process, which has the knock-on effect of reducing the cost to you, the client, but it also ensures greater consistency, both within a single document and from one document to the next. It is compatible with files from all other popular CAT tools, including SDL Trados and MemoQ.
