You should probably ask ICHBINDASWALROSS, he's been offering German translations for some time now.

If I was him I wouldn't want to be translating large pieces of work, although that is just me. For a play I just translated I popped it through Altavista's BabelFish and then instead of using what it said I put it into english myself by writing down what I thought sounded best.

How long is this piece of work? Should it be translated into German or into English?

A few useful sites for online German-English dictionaries are:

A word of caution about the babelfish:
