Palex 2009 Results
Despite the global economic slowdown and falling demand for translation and localization services, Palex's results are better in most aspects. While translation volume into Russian was down from 2008, that was more than offset by quadrupled demand for translation into Kazakh and a significant increase in translation into European languages. In addition, our DTP team typeset twice more pages than last year. This shows that our clients are still busy in spite of the slowdown, and they depend on Palex when it comes to localizing their products.
