OCR & DTP services

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

  • OCR (OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION)

Many of the documents we work with come in the form of scanned documents or PDF files, formats that are difficult to edit or copy. In such a situation, an OCR tool comes in handy. This is a piece of software or built-in function that, to put it simply, recognises symbols in uneditable files, transforming them into text that can be easily copied and modified.

OCR software can recognise text on graphics and convert tables, stamps, formulas or entire PDF files. As a result, a closed PDF file read by the computer as an image is converted into an open, editable text file from which text can be copied, for example.

  • DTP (GRAPHICAL PROCESSING OF DOCUMENTS)

Desktop Publishing (DTP) combine all the processes related to the document preparation for publishing, both in print and online. It also covers conversion of non-editable documents to an editable format, which in turn speeds up the translation process and enable future documents editing and updating.

The translation can faithfully reflect the structure of the original document with all its graphical elements, such as photographs, Excel charts, screenshots, backgrounds, colours, etc. The file is edited in graphics software, allowing for future updates. The resulting document looks very professional, so it can be showcased in contacts with business partners.

Our DTP department will make sure that, following the translation into the languages of your choice, the layout of the text will match the original document as closely as possible.
