Quick take
File translation avoids copying text paragraph by paragraph. DeepL translates the complete document while attempting to preserve its structure and formatting.
How to translate a file
Sign in, open Translate files, and upload a DOCX, PPTX, PDF, or TXT file. Choose the source and target languages, apply a glossary if needed, then start the translation.

What to expect from each format
DOCX is usually easiest to edit. PPTX may need text-box adjustments when translated sentences become longer. Complex or scanned PDFs can require layout correction.
TXT is best when formatting is not important. When available, use the original DOCX or PPTX instead of a converted PDF.
Use a glossary before translating
A glossary controls translations for product names, legal terms, technical vocabulary, and brand language.
The Jaideepass plan includes one account-stored glossary for consistent terminology across supported devices.
Limits and common problems
The plan includes 20 editable file translations per month, and unused file translations do not roll over.
Remove password protection before uploading. Important documents should always receive a final human review.
