This article reviews, on the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the creation of the journal Trans: Revista de Traductología published by the Department of Translation and Interpreting of the University of Malaga, the professional situation of translators working for publishing houses in Spain around 1997. It briefly recalls the computer and lexicographic tools used at that time, as well as the employment conditions (contracts, rates), the legal framewok (Intellectual Property Law), and the associative situation of the translator’s collective (with specific mention of the main Spanish translators’ association, ACE Traductores). It also refers to some of the changes that have taken place since then.
