BURG Translations suggests you use the following
ideas for better translation project efficiency.

DESIGN

Allow for expansion of text when writing and completing
document layouts.
Translation can expand text 20 to 40% in length. Font sizes will
need to be decreased considerably and layouts compromised
if the source document has a very tight layout.

The following links may be of help:

Universal Currency Converter
Converts from one currency into another.

Metric Conversion Tables
Converts units of length, weight, volume and more.

Plan for illustrations.
Any text included in illustrations will need to be localized,
creating duplicate images for each language. This may be
eliminated by the use of captions or callouts in the page layout
rather than the illustration program.

Consider using multilingual desktop publishing.
Your translation provider can provide the design team with
multilingual training, software, fonts, and proofing capabilities
usually unavailable in a standard studio. The additional cost assures
that your final output correctly presents the translation as expected.
