Depending on the level of difficulty of the text, approx. 30 to 45 standard lines (= 1-1.5 standard pages) can be translated within an hour. Based on a working day of 8 hours, this yields an output of 8-12 standard pages.
Please expect an average rate of 120 standard lines (= 4 standard pages) per hour for proofreading (comparison of the translation with the source text with respect to spelling and punctuation mistakes, stylistic and content errors and any possible improvements). Based on a working day of 8 hours, this results in an output of approx. 32 standard pages. This is based on the assumption that the translation has been prepared by a professional native speaker. If the translation has been prepared by a non-native speaker or layperson, the time required may quickly be doubled or even tripled.
You can expect a rate of approx. 240 standard lines (= 8 standard pages) per hour for editing work (checking a German or foreign language text with respect to spelling and punctuation mistakes, stylistic and content errors and any possible improvements). Based on a working day of 8 hours, this yields an output of approx. 64 standard pages. This is based on the assumption that the text has been prepared by a native speaker. If the text has not been prepared by a native speaker, the time required can be significantly higher.
Please bear in mind that our translators often work on large projects that can sometimes run over 4-12 weeks and that they may not be able to begin straight away.
