Can I translate scanned PDFs?
Yes. Built-in OCR detects and reads the text inside scanned pages and image-based PDFs, including documents you've photographed, then translates it in place. The original page layout, images, and positioning are all kept intact, so even a paper document you snapped with your phone comes back as a clean, translated PDF.
Will the PDF layout stay the same?
Absolutely. Fonts, columns, images, tables, headers, and footers are all preserved in their original positions, so the translated PDF mirrors the source page for page. In most cases there's nothing to reformat or fix afterward — it's ready to print, send, or publish straight away.
How many languages can I translate a PDF into?
More than 150 languages are supported, with automatic source-language detection so you don't have to specify the original. You can translate in either direction between any supported pair, whether that's English to Japanese, Spanish to Arabic, or any other combination your document needs.
Is the PDF translator free?
Yes, you can try it for free with no signup and no credit card. Just upload your PDF, choose a target language, translate, and download the finished file — there's nothing to install and no account to create before you get your result.
Are my PDFs kept private?
Yes. Your uploads are transferred over an encrypted connection and used only to produce your translation — never shared or sold. Files are removed automatically from our servers once processing is done, so your documents don't linger anywhere after you've downloaded the result.
