Today, we are releasing document translation as preview. Document translation is a brand new feature of the Translator service<\/a> that translates entire documents, or batches of documents, in a variety of file formats preserving their original structure and format.<\/p>\n Document translation was specifically designed to translate large files with rich content — translate Word, PowerPoint, Excel, or PDFs, and more into 70+ languages<\/a>. You can also apply custom glossaries and custom translation models built with Custom Translator<\/a> to make sure that your documents translate exactly the way you want.<\/p>\n Translate large documents<\/strong> Translate large batches of documents<\/strong> Richer content<\/strong> Supported file formats:<\/p>\n Apply glossaries and customization<\/strong> Learn more about Document Translation in the video below.<\/p>\nWhy use document translation?<\/h2>\n
\nWith document translation, there is no limit on the number of characters that can be translated in a document. That means that you can translate large documents in their entirety instead of breaking up the content into separate requests.<\/p>\n
\nUpload documents or batches of documents for translation for asynchronous translation. Asynchronous translation allows you batch and manage your job queues to translate content when it is efficient for you and your organization.<\/p>\n
\nThe 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.<\/p>\n\n\n

\nYou can upload custom glossaries to ensure that specific words and phrases translate just the way you want, or use Custom Translator<\/a> to create new translation models that understand the terminology used in your own business and industry and apply them to your translated documents.<\/p>\n
