Translation rate?

[Lvisson at AOL.COM]

Rates vary, but for semi-technical prose (and philosophy would certainly
qualify as that) a professional might charge $140-170 per 1.000 words. There are
about 300 words on a printer, double-spaced page, so that would come to roughly
$40-50 a page. Those are professional rates - there are always
nonprofessionals or graduate students willing to work for less, and some publishing houses
will not pay more than $80-100/1000 words.  Well, you get what you pay for...
