Tricky formatting - not a thing of the past? Sep 4, 2014

I just had this little message back from a client who had already acknowledged receipt of a translation:

"P.S. I just noticed you also put the translation into the template, thanks for that".

For a moment, I was baffled as to what she was on about, as all I had done was to run the text through Studio and then check for any unfortunate errors that might have slipped in. The only thing that needed correction was an error from the source text... I'm not saying Studio eliminates any need for post-formatting entirely, but it does go a long way... at least in my experience...

Oh, and by the way, my answer was 'yes, sometimes'... I would be lying if I claimed that I love translating all the time, but I do enjoy it when the texts are interesting and there is plenty of work coming my way...
