Convert to an XML system and lower your translation costs by 50%

A move to Excosoft Skribenta directly lowers your translation costs by at least 50%!

The potential for lowering the cost of translations by using Skribenta is very high. The secret behind these cost savings is based on the use of XML where Skribenta stores the structured information. In some cases, you don't even need to have a string of text translated. It may sound unbelievable, but as if each manual uses a piece of information that has already been translated, the chances are high you do not need to spend money on a new translation.

We all know that translating documents, and staying on top of the changes, is very expensive. It is not unusual to pay more than once for the same translation. With Excosoft Skribenta you have complete control of every word.

The format does not matter, whether it is one manual or a booklet, or whether it is multilingual or web-based. Everything can be published in any format - just at the press of a button.

We are confident that you can save money with Excosoft Skribenta. Often it may seem to be difficult to objectively measure cost savings before and after you start using Skribenta, since many parameters change. For this reason, we did a sample comparison ourselves using two translation companies. We sent an original FrameMaker document as well as content converted to XML using Skribenta. The two quotes we got back showed a cost savings of nearly 50% by using the XML based system!

For many global organizations, this “translates” into potential savings of several million per year. Even better, the quality of information published increases significantly.

After this first step of converting to Skribenta (and reducing translation costs by 50%) you can save even more money by structuring the content for maximum single sourcing.

Some people have major concerns about switching to XML but it is much easier than you think. Whatever tool you used before it is possible to automate the conversion process.
