Harborline Logistics: one brochure, six languages

Harborline runs freight corridors between Rotterdam, Hamburg and northern Italy. Their 24-page corporate brochure existed only in Dutch.

What we did

  • Translated the brochure into English first, then into German, Italian, French, Spanish and Polish
  • Created a terminology list of 180 logistics terms
  • Checked every localized layout before print

Result

Six print runs delivered from one InDesign master, with every language within two pages of the Dutch original.
