AI PDF Translator
Translate the text of a PDF into another language, without uploading the file.
Before you use this: These AI tools run on a free Cloudflare allowance, so they are limited to 5 requests per person per day. Every other tool on this site is unlimited — the difference is that those run entirely on your device, while this one needs a server.

Text is extracted in your browser and only the text is sent. You get plain translated text back — layout and formatting are not preserved, because the translation is of the words, not the document.

How it works
This is the one part of the site that needs a server. A language model cannot run in a browser at usable speed, so your text is sent to a small Cloudflare Worker, processed at the edge, and returned. The file — where there is one — never leaves your device; only text does.
How it is kept safe and free: there is no API key anywhere, because Cloudflare's AI is bound directly to the Worker rather than authenticated with a token that could be stolen from the page. The prompts live on the server, not in your browser, so the endpoint cannot be repurposed as somebody's free chatbot. An invisible human check and a per-person daily cap keep the shared free allowance available to actual visitors.
Nothing you send is stored, logged, or used for training.

Frequently asked questions
Is this good enough for official documents?
No. Official and legal submissions almost always require a certified human translator, and machine output will be rejected. Use this to understand what a document says, not to submit anywhere.
Does it keep the layout?
No. You get the text translated as text. Tables and columns do not survive.
Is my text sent to a server?
Yes — and this is the one part of the site where that is true. AI needs a model that cannot run in a browser, so your text goes to a Cloudflare Worker, is processed, and comes straight back. It is not stored, not logged, and not used for training. If that matters for your document, use the tools that run fully on your device instead.
Why only 5 uses a day?
The AI runs on Cloudflare's free tier, which gives the whole site a fixed daily allowance. Without a per-person cap, one script could drain it before breakfast and nobody else would get to use it. The limit resets at midnight UTC.
Can I trust the output?
Read it before you use it. Language models produce fluent text that can still be wrong, and they occasionally invent detail. The prompts here explicitly instruct the model not to add facts you did not provide, but treat every result as a first draft to check, not a finished document.
Is this tool really free?
Yes — no account, no trial, no watermark, and no cap on usage. It runs on your own device rather than our servers, so there is no cost for us to pass on.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. The interface adapts to phone and tablet screens, and everything runs in the browser, so there is no app to install.
