Available in over 200 languages within the UK and beyond, our linguists can get you heard in any language of your choice. While we do not offer a walk-in service, we are only one phone call away from discussing your language requirements.
Your documents typeset by experts and checked by Romanian linguists
If we are provided with the source text in a standard, fully editable format such as Word or Excel and asked to produce a translation in any language, then this is straightforward.
If however the translation needs to fit within a layout that combines elements such as text, numerical data, photographs, illustrations, other graphics and special formatting, then you may need the help of one of our typesetters.
Just let us know how we can help you.
What information would we need from you?
- What language is your source document?
- What is the subject matter?
- As translated texts donโt always take-up the same amount of room, have you taken this into account with the design of your document so that it will accommodate versions in different languages such as Romanian?
- Remember some languages read from right to left.ย Will your design allow for right to left reading languages?
- What software package have you used to design the original?ย Are you able to send us the source files, including any pictures or graphics?
- How many words is your source document?
- How many pages is your typeset version?
- Would you require the translated typeset version to be proofread by a native speaker after the typesetting stage?
Which languages read from right to left?
The main languages are:
- Arabic
- Aramaic
- Azeri
- Dhivehi/Maldivian
- Hebrew
- Kurdish (Sorani)
- Persian/Farsi
- Urdu
What will our Romanian proofreaders consider?
Our proofreaders will carefully check the formatting of a document to ensure that sentences donโt appear twice, a word has not been cut off inappropriately, headings are in bold if they should be, titles to illustrations have not been omitted.ย This is especially important post desktop publishing or typesetting.
How is the cost for Romanian typesetting calculated?
- The cost depends on the number of pages
- The cost depends on the complexity of the layout

While youโre here… some quite interesting facts about the Romanian language.
Romanian is a Romance language spoken by about 24 million people mainly in Romania, Moldova and Ukraine. Romanian retains a number of features of Latin, such as noun cases, which have disappeared from Romance languages. Romanian contains many words taken from the surrounding Slavic languages, and also from French, Old Church Slavonic, German, Greek and Turkish. Romanian first appeared in writing during the 16th century, mainly in religious texts and other documents. The earliest known text in Romanian dates from 1521 and is a letter from Neacลu of Cรขmpulung to the mayor of Braลov. Neacลu wrote in a version of the old Cyrillic alphabet similar to the one for Old Church Slavonic, which was used in Walachia and Moldova until 1859. From the late 16th century a version of the Latin alphabet using Hungarian spelling conventions was used to write Romanian in Translyvania. Then in the late 18th century a spelling system based on Italian was adopted. A version of the Cyrillic alphabet was used in the Soviet Republic of Moldova until 1989, when they switched to the Romanian version of the Latin alphabet. Courtesy of Omniglot
