Frequently Asked Questions
How do I translate a PDF with AI agents?
Smartcat's platform uses a dedicated PDF Translation Agent that reads your file, translates the content with AI, and then rebuilds the document, preserving your original layout. This automates the entire process, helping you launch multilingual content much faster.
What makes Smartcat the best AI PDF converter?
Smartcat is a complete global content platform, not just a single tool. It combines AI translation with content management and reviewer collaboration. Our PDF Translation Agent delivers scalable, brand-consistent translations without disrupting your design, enabling global teams to work with more control and less overhead.
Can the AI translate scanned PDFs?
Yes, our PDF Translation Agent is equipped with advanced Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to accurately convert scanned PDFs and images into editable text for translation.
Will my original formatting be preserved?
Yes, the PDF Translation Agent is specifically designed to maintain your original document formatting. While text within images is not translated, the overall layout and positioning of visuals are preserved to ensure brand consistency.
Is this different from an automatic translator extension?
Yes. While an automatic translator extension is useful for quick webpage previews, our platform offers a more powerful solution for business documents like PDFs. It's an enterprise-grade tool designed for high-quality, format-preserving translation that integrates into your company's global content workflow, providing greater control and reviewer collaboration.
How many languages does the PDF translator support?
Smartcat's PDF Translation Agent can translate your documents into over 280 languages, allowing you to manage multilingual projects simultaneously with ease.
Does Smartcat integrate with other business systems?
Yes, Smartcat provides 30+ integrations with systems like Google Drive, Contentful, and Adobe Experience Manager to connect seamlessly with your existing global content workflow.
Can I customize terminology for my brand?
Yes, you can upload custom glossaries to ensure your translations remain accurate and consistent with your brand's specific terminology. The PDF Translation Agent learns from every edit your reviewers make, continuously improving quality for future projects.
How secure is my data with Smartcat's AI PDF Converter?
Your data security is our top priority. Smartcat protects your PDF translations and project data with multiple layers of security:
SOC 2 Type II compliance
End-to-end encryption
Granular role-based access controls
Data residency and GDPR compliance
Whether you're translating sales materials or technical guides, your content remains secure throughout the entire process.
Is there a free trial for PDF translation?
Yes, you can sign up for a free 14-day trial to experience all features of the Smartcat platform, including our advanced AI PDF converter.
Why is the editor not working correctly in my browser?
Some web browsers have a native translation feature that can interfere with web-based tools. If you encounter issues, check your browser settings to ensure that flags like extensions.translations.disabled are not preventing the Smartcat editor from functioning. Disabling your browser's automatic translation pop-up for the Smartcat domain typically resolves the problem.
