Hello everyone. A client who sends me work every year around this time of the year, sent me work consisting of about 6 pages.



Each page was almost exactly the same as what I translated the year before. There were only a few minor changes, such as dates (changing 2001 to 2002, etc.) and a few other things.



I finished the job in about 1.5 hours. But, I\'m waiting for them to make the pdf files so that I can proofread the final work.

Price to charge Apr 5, 2002

Why don\'t you decide on an hourly rate to charge your client and charge by the hour (i.e. 1.5 hours or 2 hours) rather than a rate per word? This way you would solve the problem of what to charge.
