Formats: your translation in the form each agency requires

Every professional association, court or agency asks for its own form: paper, margins, font, letterhead, page numbering, filler dashes and a closing formula. With Formatting you define it once in a template and your translation comes out that way, as one more option in Review: Option 4.

Format templates · My templates and EZDocu templates

How it works

  1. Go to Formatting, in the side menu.
  2. Choose one of the EZDocu templates, based on real standards: the Argentine traducción pública, Spain's sworn translation, Peru's certified translation and pleading paper for California courts. Click Add to my menu, or Duplicate to adapt it.
  3. Or create your own with New template, or with Upload your Word to start from the format of one of your .docx files.
  4. When you create the order, turn on Apply a format and choose the template.
  5. In Review, under Choose format, click the button with its name.

What you can define

  • Paper size, orientation, margins, font, line spacing and alignment.
  • Header and footer with your logo, images and tables. The header can go on every page, on the first page only or on every page but the first.
  • Page numbering (1, 2, 3 · Page 1 of N · 001), filler dashes and numbered lines for courts.
  • The closing formula, with variables (languages, city, date, your name) and your signature and seal. It comes out exactly as you wrote it or translated into the target language.
  • What the document takes from this template: Full format, Header and footer only, Header, footer and paper or Custom, to choose section by section what is kept from the original.

Good to know

  • The editor's AI assistant adjusts the template live: ask it for “2 cm margins” or “Page numbers 1 of N”. Nothing is saved until you click Save.
  • If both the original and the template have a header or footer, we ask you which one goes. If the translation takes up more pages than the original, you choose between shrinking the font (never below 85%) or continuing onto more pages.
  • When you create the order, only pinned templates (Pin) appear. The one you mark with Set as default is preselected when you turn on Apply a format.

All the details are in Formats.
