PDF details

What stays intact in a translated PDF

  • The translated text is drawn back onto the original pages in place, so columns, tables, images, and fonts stay exactly where they were.
  • The page count matches the original, and multi-column layouts keep their correct reading order.
  • Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Arabic, and Hebrew text is handled natively, without breaking characters or reflowing pages.
  • Choose the AI engine that suits the document: Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, DeepL, or Google Translate — or bring your own API keys.
  • In head-to-head testing against DeepL on hard real-world files, automated vision scoring rated Otules' layout 4.97 vs 4.66 out of 5, and Otules kept a dense 16-page Japanese timetable to its original length where DeepL reflowed it to 24 pages.
  • Scanned PDFs (image-only files) aren't supported yet — the file needs selectable text.
