Time	From	To	Content
15:46 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	You say that In Italy the translation fees are low, but how much is low for you? Could you give examples?
15:46 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	@englishinna Yes, definitively
15:46 Jun 6, 2014	Inna Ivanova: 1321490	All	How much more?
15:47 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	of course, edition could be time-consuming!
15:47 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	it depends of the time needed
15:47 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	"Thing is, the agency/client can almost invariably find somebody cheaper..." --> that's what you shouldn't care about, because I think it's often not true. I have had the experience that a client came to me, I said no, and shortly afterwards another client came to me WITH THE SAME TEXT!
15:47 Jun 6, 2014	Barbara Carrara: 934537	All	First of, translations here are normally calculated in pages (cartelle). A standard cartella is 1500 keystrokes.
15:48 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	mmmm 1500 keystrokes?
15:48 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Circa 150 words, I think
15:49 Jun 6, 2014	Inna Ivanova: 1321490	All	1800 characters with spaces is a normal page.
15:49 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	and the minimum tariff for these 150 words?
15:49 Jun 6, 2014	starlightaloud: 1624756	All	i think it's more than 150 words
15:49 Jun 6, 2014	Barbara Carrara: 934537	All	Yep, chars. Now, for some reason, a publisher's 'cartella' varies between 1800 and 2000 chars. But they tend to pay less.
15:49 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	For a printed paperback I always estimate 250 words/page
15:50 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	Your right Peter
15:50 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	you're*
15:50 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	So, I'm not using a webcam, because I get an "Out of Time" message.
15:51 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	I have seen the cost of living and is not low in Italy
15:51 Jun 6, 2014	Barbara Carrara: 934537	All	A cartella would roughtly be 200-220 words.
15:52 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Short words.
15:52 Jun 6, 2014	Barbara Carrara: 934537	All	David: no, it isn't, even in the bundu...
15:52 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Cost of living is difficult to estimate. I have seen the prices in Japan, and I think: it's cheap, over there. But housing seems to be expensive.
15:52 Jun 6, 2014	Inna Ivanova: 1321490	All	Words vary in length. That's why using characters with spaces is the best way to norm a page.
15:52 Jun 6, 2014	César Yamandú Sánchez Franco: 35323	All	you work in literary translation Barbara?
15:53 Jun 6, 2014	Barbara Carrara: 934537	All	César: no, I don't.
