New DIN standards manual: maximum information content at a minimal cost

The new, revised and significantly expanded edition of the handbook "Standards for Terminology Work, Technical Writing and Translation" was published in September. It contains a large number of German-language standards across almost 600 pages, including eight new documents. The standards included are relevant to creating specialised texts, their translation and other aspects of the translation process. The handbook is recommended for a large group of experts in the fields of translation, terminology and technical communication. We explain why.
