What Document Translator does
Document Translator is a browser-based utility that translates PDF, DOCX, TXT, and Markdown files without leaving your computer. It produces a side-by-side comparison of the original and translated text, and outputs the result as a downloadable document. The service handles batch processing of multiple file types and preserves document structure such as paragraphs, tables, headers, and footers when translating Word files, though complex inline formatting may be simplified in the translated output.
