How it works

  1. Add your document

    Convert a PDF, scan or image to Word, or upload a Word file (.docx) you already have.

  2. Choose languages

    Pick up to 5 languages at once, for one document or several.

  3. Check the price, then download

    See the exact credits first. Each translation is a Word file you can edit.

What stays the same

Kept in the translation

  • Every paragraph and table cell in its place, with its paragraph style
  • Headers, footers and footnotes, translated too
  • Paragraphs that are only numbers, left as they are
  • Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu and other right-to-left languages, set right to left in Word
  • Names of people and organizations: the document’s own translation when it gives one, otherwise written in the new language with the original in brackets

Good to check

  • Translations are made by machine and can contain mistakes. Check important documents before you rely on them.
  • Each paragraph takes the formatting of its first words, so a single bold or italic word inside a sentence isn’t kept.
  • A scan is translated as it was read. Check the conversion first; a misread word is translated as it was misread.
