TEXT-BASED PDF

Keep the source in sight while you review a PDF translation.

A PDF can contain more than readable text. Start with text-based files, inspect each result, and treat scanned or complex layouts as separate cases.

A PRACTICAL REVIEW PATH

Check extracted text before translation

Compare translated passages with the source

Inspect page layout and export before delivery

BEFORE YOU DELIVER

Inspect the actual output.

Scanned pages, columns, formulas, and unusual fonts may require OCR or manual layout repair. Results vary by file.

COMMON QUESTIONS

A scan usually needs OCR before its text can be translated. Check recognition quality first, especially for tables, formulas, and small print.

Compare critical passages with the source and check page order, columns, fonts, and the exported layout. Results vary by file.

These are review steps, not a guarantee for every file. Start with a document you can inspect.
