Frequently asked questions about PDF Translation
How do I translate a scan that I cannot select text in?

Our OCR tool scans the image of your document to identify characters. Once the text is 'unlocked,' our translator converts it into your desired language and provides a digital, editable file for your use.

Is OCR translation accurate for older documents?

Our AI-enhanced OCR is designed to clarify and read text even from older or slightly blurry scans. By identifying the words first, it ensures a much higher translation accuracy than tools that simply guess at the image.

Can I translate a scanned PDF into multiple languages?

Yes. Once the OCR has processed your scan, you can choose to translate the extracted text into English, Spanish, French, or dozens of languages, creating separate files for each if needed.

Will the final document still look like a scan?

The final document will be a clean, digital version of your scan. While it retains the layout, the text will be crisp, digital, and translated, making it much easier to read and share than a raw image file.
