Paid on delivery
We want to uncover some family history so are looking for help translating a book from Italian to English. Most of the book has been automatically translated but there are a number of errors which have happened due to bad OCR or just bad machine translation. This job will entail: 1. Correct any errors in the machine translation from Italian to English. 2. Translate any missing sections that did not get picked up by the OCR. 3. Make sure any style/formatting is copied across to the final document. 4. Proofread the English grammar and style so that it makes sense to a native English reader. Final deliverable is a properly-formatted Microsoft Word document or OpenOffice document containing the English text. Bonus points if you can paste the few illustrations into the proper parts of the final document too.

____________ Translation Sample – First Page More than ten years have passed from the canonization of Saint Justin de Jacobis (1975). This booklet was written on this occasion having the role of spreading the news. Even this republication has the same purpose: to collaborate with the ones who want to find out more – this is to say – who want to value De Jacobis. He is very actual – like Paul VI says – and has just one guilt, that of not being known. For us it is clear that the guilt is ours; and it is us who must try to speak about the great missionary. And the enthusiasm we will employ will be according to his greatness. ________ Looking forward to your accepting me the project! We can also further discuss the price!
