Topic: Charge extra for source texts with lots of typos?

Post title: on the other hand...
if you use TM match, they will not show up as 100% matches - so you should get a higher price for them...
It gets worse if you get a text which has bad terminology, and general bad English (stuff that has been translated from another language into English first) and you have to make sense of what it is supposed to mean, or what the original writer might have intended...
(particularly true for technical stuff)....
Also if you have to report / correct all the typos in the source language, you just add a fee...
then again, I''m telling you a lot of stuff that you either already know, or you're gonna use in your next training....
