Peritus understands the "language" of multilingual graphics and typesetting and can assist your organization with the full layout of multilingual graphics projects for product descriptions, brochures, annual reports, product packaging, manuals, as well as interactive media customized to your specific needs.

Peritus can work with your design team up-front, in the creative process to provide advice on layout considerations such as choice of platform, choice of fonts, image creation for easy text replacement, as well as spacing considerations.

Besides providing a linguistically accurate translation, there are more issues to consider in publication to ensure that your documentation is appropriate for your target markets. Words convey only one part of the message. We can also advise you on the cultural appropriateness of the use of colors and styles, logos and images, which may be offensive in other cultures.

If you have an existing English copy, our graphic designers will copy-fit the translated text into the format or layout of the original piece. We understand the issues regarding fonts including single and double-byte enabled fonts, unicode, and other character sets. We then deliver final files ready for printing including native application files, postscript, or Acrobat PDF suitable for publishing on your website.

Peritus works with some of the best multilingual desktop publishers with many years of experience in the art and science of foreign language multimedia design and development. We are working with such industry standard Mac and PC applications as:

• Adobe FrameMaker
• QuarkXpress
• Adobe Illustrator
• Adobe Photoshop
• Adobe PageMaker
• Adobe InDesign
• Microsoft Office Suite

We are constantly upgrading our computer graphics capabilities to satisfy the most demanding desktop publishing and web needs and execute challenging designs. Whether you're looking for an electronic file, high-resolution color output, or oversized camera-ready art, Peritus delivers.

Quality assurance is a given in layout as much as during translation. Therefore, our proofreaders will review the target-language version for correct hyphenation, placement, and formatting in as many proofreading rounds as necessary to deliver a high-quality product.
