End-to-End Multilingual DTP Production Without Handoffs
Founded in 1978 and proudly based in Houston, Texas, Omni delivers specialist multilingual desktop publishing (DTP) services as a core part of our language solutions. Our in-house DTP studios work directly alongside our linguists and project managers, ensuring there are no handoffs, no third parties, and no loss of control from translation through final production.
We are a DTP-first organization for multilingual content, with decades of experience handling complex layouts, technical documentation, training materials, marketing collateral, and regulated content.
From InDesign and FrameMaker to structured and design-heavy files, our production teams ensure layouts, formatting, graphics, and usability are preserved across languages. We help deliver files that are truly production-ready.
DTP is fully integrated into our document translation workflows, allowing us to manage translation and formatting in a single, coordinated process. This approach reduces rework and shortens turnaround times, especially for complex or high-volume projects.
With a Texas-based team and long-standing client relationships, Omni acts as a dependable extension of your organization. We handle multilingual production with consistency and care, so your content is ready for use anywhere in the U.S. or global markets.
Omni has also developed xFer, our proprietary workflow designed to make multilingual translation and layout as seamless and controlled as possible, particularly for design-heavy files.
Using xFer, we separate content from design while keeping both fully aligned:
- Content is exported directly from the native application (such as InDesign or other design tools)
- Translation and verification—including client review—are completed in a familiar, corporate-friendly format such as Microsoft Word
- Approved copy is then imported cleanly back into the original application
- Layout, formatting, and design integrity are preserved across all languages
By using xFer, Omni reduces manual intervention and significantly shortens production timelines. The result is consistent, high-quality multilingual output that mirrors the original design, while also saving both time and cost across every project.
