Translate Entire PDF From Spanish To English

Post by End User »

After doing a quick search, I don't believe this is possible yet with PDF-XChange Editor, but I thought I'd double check.

I see there are numerous websites that offer this feature, but I'd rather not have to resort to using one of them if there is a way to accomplish this through PDF-XChange Editor.

The only solution I've found so far is to use PDF-XChange Editor to convert the Spanish language PDF into a Microsoft Word document and then using Word to convert from Spanish to English.

This works, but since all the PDF documents I need to convert are spec sheets with diagrams, tables, and text, everything gets jumbled about.

If there is not a better way to accomplish this using PDF-XChange Editor, please let me know if any of you have a recommendation for which website offering to convert uploaded PDF's may be better than the others.

Hello, End User

I am sorry to say that no, we do not offer a feature like this, and that I do not have any recommendations for where to go about trying to do so. Due to the variance in phrase length between various languages, such functions will often result in much overlap, or "page spill-over" (Which in a PDF, that does not have flow based page wrapping, means the content is often hidden beyond the bottom of a page).

If you do find a software or site which offers this, do be careful to check every page in your processed files manually for any such issues.

Kind regards,
