Starting in 2018, İntrotema has been supporting publishers, authors, and institutions with high-quality translation services for children’s books, adult fiction, and nonfiction works.
Our translation work covers complete books as well as synopses, sample chapters, publisher catalogues, author biographies, press materials, and other supporting content needed in the publishing process, ensuring that content can reach readers across languages and markets.
Our approach to translation is comprehensive in scope:
• Providing services in English, French, German, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Chinese, Korean, Estonian, Slovenian, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Polish, Finnish, Malay, Indonesian, Serbian, Croatian, and many other languages
• Matching each project with specialized translators who are not only fluent or native speakers, but also have expertise in genres such as children’s literature, academic texts, and historical works
• Offering editorial support including editing, proofreading, localization, and adaptation to ensure linguistic and cultural accuracy
To maximize translation quality, our team, led by Edanur İpek Altunok:
• Assesses translators through a rigorous quality assurance process, including reviewing previous work and requesting demo translations
• Maintains internal profiles documenting translators’ backgrounds, strengths, and areas of specialization
• Facilitates collaborative workflows with clients, enabling draft reviews, feedback, and revisions throughout the process
• Provides post-translation services, including formatting, layout adaptation, final quality checks, and typesetting when needed
In practice, this often means:
• Connecting clients with the right translators for each project
• Organizing workshops, regular meetings, and updates to keep translators aligned with publishing industry standards
• Ensuring that translations consistently meet high linguistic and professional standards
Looking ahead:
• İntrotema will continue expanding its translation network and language coverage
• Our agency will further develop collaborative workflows and quality assurance processes to meet the evolving needs of publishers and institutions
