Mandarin text contracts around 15% less than the English source so when typesetting Mandarin it could cause problems if this has not been taken into account in the original design.

All our Mandarin typesetting is handled in-house and carried out by our own experienced typesetters. We produce all kinds of Mandarin typesetting including corporate brochures, packaging, business cards, posters and manuals.

Adelphi is a full service translation agency, which as well as producing Mandarin translations also produces Mandarin subtitling and Mandarin voice-overs and has with offices in the UK and USA. When typesetting some languages it is important to know which font works for that particular language in a particular design package. By using Adelphi for your translation and typesetting we will ensure that the correct font is used to avoid any problems at the typesetting stage.

Adelphi has been translating and typesetting Mandarin and other languages for national and international companies including Jaguar, Vidal Sassoon, Cisco, Sony etc, direct or via their advertising and design agencies. We also work for international aid agencies such as Amnesty International, Refugee Action, UNICEF and the Refugee Council.
