Professional Translation Services in Manchester Backed Up by Cutting-Edge Technology

Our translation expertise extends to more than the words you use. Our multilingual typesetters and designers are familiar with every written form, including vertical and pictorial writing systems, and can lay out your text in design for both print and web. We have in-house graphic designers on hand to create original work for magazines, brochures, product manuals, and more, and are highly experienced in creating layouts that accommodate text expansion and contraction (the growth or shrinkage of word count as your translation moves between different languages). Plus we offer notarial services for certified translations that require legalisation or apostille before they can be used in your target country. We offer competitive prices for our Manchester translations services by using state-of-the-art quality translation memory software, which creates a personalised translation memory for your organisation. Every time we carry out a translation project for you, the words and phrases you use most frequently are stored in your memory. You only pay for the new elements of future translations.

Absolute Translations - a superbly professional service

Absolute Translations are absolutely superb, I've used them multiple times in 2024. The service is phenomenal: incredibly quick, accurate, professional and personal from start to finish. The prices seem very reasonable to me but I've not benchmarked I do admit. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Quick turnaround and fantastic service

I want to thank Mattia and his team for being so brilliant. I needed some documents translated from English into French quickly, and they was able to meet the deadline. There were quite a few documents and required a professional level of translation with certification. At all times, Mattia was helpful, courteous and responsive. I definitely recommend this company.
