The best translator for PDF documents
Posted 1 month ago
Hi everyone! I have a problem with translating a PDF document into Spanish. I've heard of Translate.com, but I'm not sure how effective it is for working with PDFs. Maybe someone has already tried it? I'm interested to know how well it handles formatting and whether it loses the meaning of the text. Thanks in advance for the tips!

I recently used https://www.translate.com/services/pdf-translation/spanish to translate a PDF into Spanish, and I have mixed impressions. On the one hand, the translation process itself is pretty simple: you upload a document, choose a language and click a button. However, when I downloaded the translated file, I noticed that some formatting elements were lost. For example, tables and graphs sometimes looked strange, and some lines of text shifted. In general, if you have a document with important visual elements, it is worth checking how they are displayed after translation. Moreover, I noticed that automatic translation is not always perfect. For example, if the text contains specific terminology or phrases that can only be understood in context, Translate.com may translate them too verbatim, which can distort the meaning. Therefore, I recommend that if possible, after the automatic translation, you review the text again and correct the most obvious errors. I used this platform to translate a textbook, and fortunately the main text was fine. But here are some details that could have been better translated. I would recommend testing the platform on a small document first to assess the quality of the translation before uploading something more extensive. It's important to realize that despite the power of technology, sometimes manual translation is best, especially if the text is very specific or requires a deep understanding of the language.

Thanks for the info!!! I was thinking of trying Translate for my documents too, but now I see that I have to be careful about formatting and meaning. I wonder if there are other tools that can handle PDF translation better?
