Hello,



Somebody asked me for a quote for a translation and I never sent one, as this is one of my first \"real\" jobs.



Can anyone send me a sample of a quote?



I will appreciate your help very much



Regards,



Eugenia

I think you should make sure that your sample comes from someone exercising in the same country as you do, as you may have to repsect specific legal requirements with regards to terms and conditions, headed papaer and so on. Not so straightforward as it seems.
