Our company is seeking a native mandarin Chinese speaker to assist with updating translated text in an existing Mandarin Chinese business brochure created in Adobe InDesign. The fully designed 12 page brochure presently features text in Mandarin, however we have obtained an updated version of approximately 1000 words from feedback on this document (as it was translated using google translate the first time around). The selected freelancer will be provided with both the original InDesign file and revised Word file containing the latest translations. The task involves replacing the existing Mandarin text within the InDesign document to reflect the modifications in the Word file. Care must be taken to ensure the flow and formatting of the brochure layout remains intact throughout the translation substitutions. As the changes are limited to textual content only, minimal expertise in Adobe InDesign is necessary to efficiently navigate and execute the requested alterations. The formatted files will be shared upon confirmation of interest in this short-term project updating approximately 1000 words of translated text within a 12 page brochure designed in InDesign. This is a quick easy job for a designer who can read nad understand simplified mandarin Chinese!

English native to make text gender neutral
Now we have a site which only woman use. But soon we want to make it both for men and women. Now all texts are written for women and we want to make them gender neutral. Texts will include HTML code. You shouldn't do anything with it but please be aware that texts contain HTML code which shouldn't be removed and it makes it a little bit more difficult to work with our text than with regular texts with no HTML codes. The texts will be sent to you in Notepad documents. When the work with documents is done, we'll publish these texts on the site and then you should review the site to be sure it contains no mistakes. Budget is nominal. I'll send you a scope of work to estimate the price.

Editing of my book
I'm looking for an editor for my book. It's a book for parents called, "Square Peg, Round Hole: How the education system fails children with needs." In it I address the main problems as to why so many children with additional needs are struggling in school. I look at the changes that should come about and what parents can do now to support their child. The book is about 70,000 words. Is this something you can do? If so, how much would I be looking at? Many thanks, Sarah Lamerton
