Translation that respects the document

Copy-pasting a contract into a translator chops it into unformatted text: tables collapse, numbering disappears, and reassembling the result takes longer than the translation itself. Document translation works differently. The engine walks the file structure, translates the text it finds and writes it back in place, so what you download is the same document speaking a different language.

That makes side-by-side review practical: open the original and the translation next to each other and everything sits in the same spot, page for page. Tables keep their columns, headings keep their hierarchy, and embedded images stay untouched.

Documents this handles well

  • Contracts and agreements received from foreign partners.
  • Manuals and spec sheets where tables matter as much as sentences.
  • Reports and presentations for international colleagues.
  • Spreadsheets with text labels and comments across languages.

Japanese, by the way, is fully supported both ways, so a 契約書 arriving from a Tokyo partner is ten seconds away from readable English. If you only need to know what a foreign document says rather than own a translated copy, Chat with PDF answers questions about it directly, and AI PDF Summarizer gives you the short version in English.

Frequently asked questions

How do I translate a PDF and keep the formatting?

+

Upload it above and choose a language. The translation engine replaces the text inside the document structure instead of extracting it, so pages, tables, headers and images keep their positions.

Which languages are supported?

+

The 26 supported document languages, including English (US and UK), Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Chinese, Korean, Turkish, Ukrainian and Arabic.

Is the translation quality good enough for business documents?

+

The translation runs on a professional document translation engine that consistently ranks at the top for translation quality. For contracts with legal consequences, have a professional review the output; for understanding, correspondence and internal use it is typically ready as is.

Can I translate a scanned PDF?

+

Scans work best if you first convert them to a text document with PDF to Word, then translate the DOCX. Documents that already contain a text layer translate directly.

Can I translate an Excel spreadsheet?

+

Yes. Upload the XLSX and cell text is translated while formulas, numbers and the sheet structure stay intact, so you get back a working spreadsheet.

What does it cost?

+

Translation costs 20 credits per 1,000 characters of source text, whatever the script, with a 1,000-credit minimum that reflects how professional document translation is billed. The character count is checked for free after upload, and the exact price is shown for confirmation before anything is charged.

What are the file limits?

+

AI tools accept documents up to 50 MB and 300 pages. If your file is bigger, cut the part you need first with the free Split PDF tool and run the AI on that part.
