About PDF Translation

Translate the text content of your PDF documents using AI:

  • Many major languages supported
  • AI-powered for natural, accurate translations
  • Text output — extracts and translates text content
  • Private — processed locally, never sent to third parties
Tip: For scanned PDFs, use OCR first to make the text extractable, then translate the result.
Tips for Best Results
  • For best results, use PDFs with selectable text (not scanned images)
  • Use OCR first on scanned documents before translating
  • Translation quality depends on document complexity and language pair
  • Output is plain text in the target language; original layout and images are not preserved
  • Latin, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, Cyrillic, Greek, Hindi (Devanagari) and Bengali scripts all render in the PDF
  • Large documents may take longer to translate
Frequently Asked Questions

The tool extracts all text from your PDF, sends it to our local AI translation engine in manageable chunks, and builds a new plain-text PDF in the target language. The original page layout, images, and fonts are not preserved.

The AI model translates to and from most major world languages. The downloadable PDF can render Latin-script languages plus Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, Russian (Cyrillic), Greek, Hindi (Devanagari) and Bengali — fonts for all of these are bundled with the app, so they display correctly without relying on the server's installed fonts.

Yes. Translation is performed by our local AI engine on our own servers. Your document is never sent to any third-party cloud service and is deleted immediately after processing.

Scanned PDFs contain images rather than text. Use our OCR tool first to convert the scanned pages to searchable text, then translate the resulting PDF.
