Question 1

Does the translated PDF look like the original?

Accepted Answer

No — and we say so plainly. The output is a clean, re-flowed A4 document: every original page starts with a small "Page N" header, text wraps naturally in the target language, and fonts, columns and images do not carry over. Bilingual mode shows the original text in gray above each translation.

Question 2

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. The file is opened in your browser and its text is extracted on your device. Only those bounded text batches — never the PDF itself — are sent for translation, and nothing is stored on the server.

Question 3

Which languages work? How good is the Arabic?

Accepted Answer

Hindi, Marathi, English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Arabic. Each non-Latin script renders in its own self-hosted Noto font embedded into the output. Arabic gets real connected letter forms and lam-alef ligatures from our own shaper, with right-to-left lines that keep numbers and embedded Latin words readable. Very exotic mixed-direction layouts and calligraphic Nastaliq styles are beyond this v1 — we would rather be honest about that than ship broken boxes.

Question 4

How long can the document be?

Accepted Answer

Up to 200 pages and about 100,000 characters of text in one run. Longer documents are refused honestly — use the Pages option (e.g. 1-20, then 21-40) to translate part by part.
