I need some PDF, and some RTF, documents translated from Mandarin->English quickly, and cheaply.
Translating as I need to contact vendors and understand wtf I'm buying. Tried to do some myself but I'm running into the babelfish conundrum (nothing fucking makes sense).
What are my options?
>Amazon turk?
>go to a local asian restaurant, ask some BOH staff to do some translation for 40$?

Mandarin is spoken, not written.
You probably need Hanzi translated. Whether it's simplified or traditional will be important as well.

It's on Taobao, so I'm pretty sure it's simplified. Google is telling me it's simplfied, so I'm going to go with mainland simplified Chinese.

>simplified
Might wind up being somewhat difficult if you go the personal route.
The PRC are the ones that did the simplification, and although they didn't do it with all characters, it still would be difficult for most who grew up reading traditional (from Taiwan, HK). They should be able to get the gist, but that may not be enough for you.

Yes, I understand people from HK and Taiwain, and Macau, and anywhere but the fucking mainland can read traditional chinese, while the mainland reads simplified Chinese due to communists.
That's going way off track though. If you knew any websites to translate, some comission based translation sites I meant, that's what I was looking for.
Something like; >MyGengo

How much are you willing to pay? My entire office and employees are all Chinese
