Technicality (Difficulty) of text. 2. Volume of Words. 3. Deadline Suitability. Each project has its own nature. Therefore, it is impossible to have a fixed rate at all times! Once you have a definite project, please send me the complete details and I will provide you with a quote immediately. Normally I charge pre source word, but sometimes for jobs that require linguistic checkups, I charge per hour. In all cases, I shall try my best to meet your budget on any given project. For DTP, I charge per page, depending on the page size and how heavy the page is formatted. For small jobs, there is a minimum charge on any given job, no matter how small. I accept wire-transfer payments to my bank account (details shall be given in due time). I also accept Moneybookers payments.

Thanks. Expertise: ======== I have over 18 years of extensive experience in delivering Arabic Language Translation Related Services. Due to NDAs and Confidentiality Agreements signed with all of my clients, I shall not be able to provide detailed information about the projects I have handled, and I believe this is something that all clients tend to respect. Only amateur and non professional translators tend to reveal the projects they have taken part in, even though this is something against the law and binding sub contractual agreements. The best way to know the promptness of my services and quality of my work is to request a list of reference names which should really give you enough insight. Nevertheless, here are some of my general achievements over the past 18 years. 1. Extensive expertise in the fields of finance, legal contracts, medical documentation, investment and banking, marketing, technical documentation no matter what the subject is, software and hardware documentation, software and website localization, food industry and airline menus, etc, to name a few. 2. Creation and testing of scores of online help systems (RTF & HTML). 3. QA and bug fixing for giant localization and translation projects. 4. Project management and administration of translation teams in numerous translation and localization projects. 5. Beta Testing of many giant applications such as TRADOS 5. 6. Translation and Publishing of the Olympic Charter produced by the International Olympic Committee. 7. Performing DTP of hundreds of manuals, booklets, brochures, leaflets, magazines, newsletters, and books. 8. Localization of dozens of major websites into Arabic language, in addition to designing static and dynamic sites from scratch. 9. More than 500 HRS of Simultaneous Interpretation in different major symposia, conferences, forums and workshops. 10. Many Consecutive Interpretation tasks at refresher courses, Olympic Solidarity courses, sports medicine courses, etc. 11. Becoming the Authorized Arabic Language Vendor for major translation agencies worldwide. Teaching computer and translation applications such as TRADOS 5, Office 2007 and HTML language, to name a few. 12. Authoring of different multimedia CDs, including the Olympic Directly (Database of Olympic and Sports Organizations all over the world). 13. Certifying translations done by other professional translators. 14. Performing language quality assurance (“Language QA”) sample checks and provide QA feedback to my clients. 15. Proofreading of miscellaneous documents and editing of localized/translated texts. 16. Developing and maintaining assigned language-specific reference material, specifications and instructions for translation/localization of customers' products. And more!! I am sure once you deal with me, you will discover how easy it is to deal with Arabic language.
