PDF translator
The text layer is read in your browser, then translated. Paragraph breaks, headings and page markers are kept, and the result comes back as text you can paste anywhere. It does not return a laid-out PDF — reproducing the original page design needs a document engine that is not part of this deployment.

About PDF translator
- What does PDF translator do?
- The text layer is read in your browser, then translated. Paragraph breaks, headings and page markers are kept, and the result comes back as text you can paste anywhere. It does not return a laid-out PDF — reproducing the original page design needs a document engine that is not part of this deployment.
- Who is it for?
- Students handing in work, professionals sending contracts and reports, administrators preparing submissions, and anyone who has hit an email attachment limit. No technical knowledge is needed.
- Is it free?
- It will be free to use. PDF translator is not available yet — see the panel above for what it is waiting on.
- Is it safe to use with confidential files?
- Your input is sent to a server to be processed and is deleted afterwards. The retention period and any third-party provider involved are stated on this page before you submit anything. For genuinely confidential material, prefer a tool marked "Private by architecture".
- What file formats are supported?
- Input: PDF. Output: TXT.
- Do I get a translated PDF back?
- No. You get the translated text with its paragraph and heading structure intact. Rebuilding the original page layout in a new language is a different and much harder job, and we would rather give you usable text than a broken imitation of your document.
- Will it work on a scanned document?
- No. A scan is an image of a page with no text layer, so there is nothing to read and translate. Run it through the PDF OCR tool first to make it searchable.
