Need Some English to Chinese Translations


Recommended Posts

I'm Developing a software for a Chinese Company. I'm setting Up Instructions, messages and Buttons in Chinese to make it more comfortable for them. 

I have Instructions like:
STEP 1 
STEP 2 
Etc.... 

How Do you say "Step 1" In Chinese? I would use Google translator, but that isn't a good thing to trust for actual translations. (i.e step 1 could translate into something about footsteps) 

I need to translate "Export Reports", I figure I could use Google for this, so I translated "Export The Reports" to 
导出报告 --- Is that about right? 

I would also like a translation for "Process Data" 

 I also have a large amount of "error messages" and "informational messages". I want to put in Chinese. If will be much more easier for them to read these errors in their own language.
Will Google Translate be sufficient for most of what I need?
 
Thanks

I suggest that you employ a translator, there are several on these forums, or there are other places to hire translators.

 

I understand the general feeling is that as it is more than just a couple of very short sentences-

large amount of "error messages" and "informational messages"

 

. and as you will presumably be paid for the work it is only fair to pay for the translations and you will get a high standard, 

 

Google is very hit and miss, especially for technical and computer vocabulary.
