About us

Welcome to Textworks Online!

Textworks Online is a professional online business that specialises in translating English texts into German, as well as in proofreading and editing/optimising German texts.

 

We consider each and every one of our projects to be unique. This means we invest enough time to understand both the project and its context, and we always keep an eye on the finer details. It is just those details which ultimately make the difference between a text being of very good, or of excellent quality.

  • Our Aim

    We aim to ensure highest levels of quality for each and every one of our translation, proofreading, and text optimisation projects. Full customer satisfaction and professional project management, at all stages from the initial quote right through to delivery of the quality-assured end product, are second nature to us.

  • Our Experience

    We are proud to be able to look back at 10 years of experience in translation (English > German), proofreading, and text optimisation work. Our exclusive focus on English/German as a language pair enables us to continuously hone our own expertise, and to successfully complete more of our clients’ demanding projects on a daily basis.

  • Your Benefits

    The benefits for you are best shown through testimonials left by our customers. Our clients describe us as uncomplicated, quick, exacting, word-smart, and highly professional.

Our Key Skills

Test Text
Translations

We translate your English texts into German accurately, and with outstanding quality. In doing so, we by no means rigidly stick to word-for-word translations; we always invest sufficient time to understand the context and meaning of the source text, so that the original meaning can then be translated into native level German.

Proofreading

We proofread and correct your German texts for typos, spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

Editing/Text Optimisation

Editing goes a step beyond proofreading. It also involves optimising your text in terms of readability (using words that are better suited), repetitions, and comprehensibility. This ensures that your text sounds professional, and that it consistently follows a given central theme from beginning to end.
