— 1 - Project name should start with the language combination, like DE>EN, and project name.
* If the project name has several words, use underscore instead of space between words.
* Language codes according to ISO, e.g. /DE for German/ or /EL for Greek/.
* We use the following abbreviations at the beginning of the project name:
BA_ (Bedienungsanleitung) - for manuals
WS_ (Website) - for a website (e.g. DE>EN WS_alchemytanslations.com)
BG_ (Beglaudigung) - for certified translation
DL_ (Dolmetschen) - for interpreting projects
* If there is a long-term project from the same client, use the same name with the date or start in the following format - DE>EN Auto_200219
* If the clients wants us to translate one file into several languages at one time, we create ONE project. Write languages via / sign, like DE>EN/FR/IT Muster_text
