PDF Translator
Your browser pulls the text out of the PDF and sends only the text. You get the original and the translation side by side.
Is the text in a screenshot or photo instead? Translate the picture to English on your machine, with the translation drawn back over it. For speech in a video, the Video Translator gives you subtitle files.

What leaves your computer
The text, and only the text. Your browser opens the PDF on your own disk and pulls the words out; those words go to a translation model. The file itself, its images and anything embedded in it stay where they are. Only three tools on this site send anything at all: this one, image translation and video translation.
How the free pages are counted
A page means 3000 characters of source text, counted on our side. When the day's pages run out the tool stops until tomorrow, unless you buy a one-time pass.
What this tool does for you
The parts worth knowing before you start.
The file stays, the text travels
The PDF is read on your own machine. Only the text is sent: no images, no attachments, no copy left on a server.
Original and translation side by side
Each paragraph sits next to its source, in page order.
A daily page allowance
Translating calls a model, so there is a daily allowance.
No account for the free pages
No email, no sign-up. Paying buys more pages, not an account.

Questions about PDF Translator
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. The text is pulled out on your own machine, and only the text is sent. The file itself never leaves your computer.
Why is this one metered when the rest are free?
The other tools run on your own processor and cost us nothing. Translation runs on a model that charges per page. 5 pages a day are free; past that you can pay or come back tomorrow.
Does it keep the layout?
No. You get the text in reading order, original beside translation. Tables and multi-column pages come out as running text.
Can it translate a scanned PDF?
No, a scan has no text in it. Run it through the Image to Text tool first, then translate what it gives you.
How good is the translation?
It is machine translation. The original stays next to it so you can check.
How many pages can I translate for free?
Five a day. A page here means 3000 characters of source text, not one page of the PDF, so a sparse slide deck costs less than its page count and a dense contract may cost more. Before you start, the button shows roughly how many pages the document will use. The count resets each day on UTC time. Your IP address is only stored as a scrambled key that changes daily.
What happens if my pages run out halfway through a PDF?
Translation stops, and you keep everything that was done up to that point. The preview and the download hold the finished part, and the rest stays in the original language. You can also press Stop yourself if you picked the wrong file. If a paragraph does not come back from the model, it is shown as the original and the page tells you how many. A batch where nothing came back is not counted against your pages.
Which AI model does the PDF translator use?
Mistral Small 3.1 (24B), running on Cloudflare Workers AI. It is told to translate only, to keep numbers, dates, currency amounts, URLs, email addresses and code unchanged, and to leave company, brand and people's names alone. You can translate into all the major world languages; pick one from the list on the tool.
What do I get if I pay?
1,500 pages for $9, paid once and good for 30 days. It does not renew by itself, so there is nothing to cancel. There is no account: the receipt is kept in your browser. If you clear site data or switch computers, enter the order number and email from your receipt and the pages move to that browser.
Bought pages and lost them?
There is no account to log in to; your receipt lives in this browser, so clearing site data or moving to another machine loses it. Enter the email you paid with and we will send you a link. Open it in the browser where you want your pages.
