Document Translation

Document translation is a feature of the Translator service that translates entire documents, or volumes of documents, in a variety of different file formats preserving their original formatting.

Why use document translation?

Translate large documents and batches of documents

With document translation, there is no limit on the number of characters that can be sent in a single translation request. That means that you can send large documents in their entirety instead of breaking up the content into separate requests. You can even translate multiple documents in batches in a single request.

Richer content

The document translation feature translates Word, Excel, PDF, and other type files while keeping their original formatting. The standard Translator service offers plain text and HTML translation which works great for translating content online or adding translations to apps but adds extra steps to translate other formats. Document translation makes translating these file types simple and easy.

Supported formats:

Apply glossaries and customization

You can upload custom glossaries to ensure that specific words and phrases translate just the way you want or use custom machine translation models created using Custom Translator that understand the terminology used in your own business and industry and apply them to your translated documents.
