  • My rates vary depending on the complexity of the original document, but here are some general guidelines:

  • Reduced rates (or sometimes FREE service) may possibly be arranged for churches, non-profit or volunteer organizations.
  • Payment (in US Dollars) is due immediately upon receipt of the translated document. Some jobs may require a 50% prepayment with balance due upon completion of project.

  • Payment is accepted using Check, Money Order or Credit Card. Credit cards at this time are accepted through PayPal only.

Along with other programs, I utilize Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, or PowerPoint formats. If possible, please forward a copy of your original electronic file to simplify and maintain the same formatting. You can send the file via e-mail attachment to me at info@angelicastranslations.com. Be aware that Spanish sometimes takes up to 15% more words (and thereby space) than the same linguistic expressions in English. This fact could affect your layout.

At no extra charge, finished translations can be delivered as a printed document, fax, computer diskette ( IBM format ), E-mail, or formatted document attached by E-mail.

Please contact me via E-mail regarding any questions that you may have. Feel free to send me your document (or information about the project, such as the web address ) by E-mail (with attachment ?), or fax, for a free estimate. Exact fees will be provided after careful review of your original document and consideration of your possible deadline. My mailing address will also be provided along with the quote. Please be aware that telephonic communication may be necessary to clarify ambiguities or personal preferences regarding translation or formatting of your document. Please include your name and telephone number for such instances.
