Proof-reading Your Promotional Material
Your Dutch audience will take you much more seriously if you have made the effort to communicate with them in precisely the kind of Dutch they use and understand themselves. Every language has its formal, colloquial, legalistic and technical variants, and you will quickly give yourselves away if the wrong form of Dutch is used in your promotional material.
Cultural understanding in promotional material is as important as the kind of Dutch itself. promotional material has to be very much "of the moment" and cultural references in one language version of your promotional material will probably mean nothing to your Dutch audience. Translators and editors require the skill and understanding of Dutch to find the right substitutions to preserve the tone and mood of your promotional material.
Having spent considerable amounts of money on polished copy written in your most presentable marketing style, why throw it all away with Dutch proof-reading which reads like a window cleaner's handbill? Your Dutch translator and editor must have the same level of skill as your original copywriter.
Specialist knowledge on the part of the editor is as important as it is to
the writer of the original promotional material. For example, using a general scientist
for proof-reading a mathematical paper risks errors of terminology which may be
unnoticeable to lay readers but transparently obvious to Dutch
mathematicians. As these are obviously the intended audience, the slightest
error would damage your credibility. We will work with you to ensure our
understanding of your Dutch promotional material is correct and that our
proof-reading is done in a style appropriate to your target audience.

Why Good Proof-reading of Dutch Language Documents
Matters
Good, accurate proof-reading is significant to the success of your company and your
services. It can be very difficult to find errors in a document written in a
foreign language, so it’s vital that the final proof-reading of your Dutch
documents should be done by a native Dutch speaker. There are instances where
even a hyphen in the wrong place can turn a perfectly ordinary word into
something offensive! A simple proof-reading error in the Dutch version of your
corporate brochure could seriously damage your reputation in that market.
Websites tend to be put together more quickly than printed media and
proof-reading is often left to the developer. This is a big mistake as your site
will be available to many more people than your printed literature.
