euroscript Showcases the Independent Language Technology of across

Luxembourg/Berlin, May 17, 2007. euroscript International S.A. with headquarters in Luxembourg and across Systems, a spin-off of Nero AG, are intensifying their collaborative work and have formed a strategic partnership. As one of the leading international language service providers, euroscript International S.A. is on the Worldwide Top 10 list of companies.

euroscript provides expert support when customers are optimising their complex content life cycle management processes. In addition to technical documentation and high-quality translation, this includes seamless integration of editorial and translation functions into company processes.

“Today, translation expertise means process expertise. We have acquired enormous capacity in the consulting, engineering, implementation and system integration areas of the multi-lingual content environment. Here, we focus on appropriate customer solutions and selected partners in technology such as across with its across Language Server”, explains euroscript International CEO, Mark Evenepoel.

As a result of the partnership with across, euroscript will not only feature Language Server in its own editorial and translation operations, but will function as a system integrator that offers its customers a direct link to the respective processes and seamless integration of the corresponding systems.
This provides many advantages to our customers. Through direct
access to content that has already been translated, source text can be written “ready to translate:”when in doubt, the formulations that have already been translated can be used. This increases the consistency and quality of the document, and saves translation costs at the same time.

Customers can also be directly integrated into the content life cycle process, having fact checking for translations performed in their own foreign subsidiaries or exchanging the content to be translated with their editorial or enterprise resource system directly, for example.

“Sending translation orders all over per mail no longer corresponds to the options and requirements of the globalised world. We emphasize collaborative work with our customers, and seamless data exchange using the same systems in which the data to be translated is created. across Language Service provides us with a platform appropriate for working in a network across all of the steps the process, and open interfaces for simple system integration”, explained Dr. Michael Schaffner, Managing Director of euroscript Deutschland.

The partnership with across, a major provider of language technology, is a seamless enhancement to the euroscript strategy of consulting customers independently and reacting flexibly to their process requirements.

across Managing Director Niko Henschen: “In the globalised world, the importance of multi-lingual content has risen as dramatically as the number of options leading to it. A new type of company platform, across Language Server delivers the technology that corresponds to this. We are proud that euroscript, a partner with a solid reputation worldwide, has chosen to adopt this technology and thus open shorter, more economical ways to multi-lingual product and corporate communication to its customers.
