How to Create Better Technical Content for Translation

Description

Technical content that is easy to understand enables a positive user experience. It also makes it easier to translate and allows the same positive experience for your global audience. This webinar provides an overview of concepts and best practices for technical communicators.

Lack of context, grammatical constructs, and linguistic non-equivalence are just some examples that represent challenges for translations. To overcome these challenges, technical communicators must understand how to create translation-ready technical source content.
