Listen "EP 12 - Yes, We Need Your Source Files"
Episode Synopsis
Peter and Patrick discuss what actually constitutes a "source file" and why translation service providers absolutely need them to complete a project successfully. They also go over what can be done with PDF files, what website crawlers do (or don't do) for the translation process, sending text in an email, older/less effective publishing programs, why you can get different quotes when you don't provide a source file and trying to hit a translation "home run" with the wrong equipment.
