Long and complex documents
We assess technical and medical PDFs, manuals, product documentation, research material and business files with many pages or challenging layouts.
PDF DOCUMENT TRANSLATION
PDF translation with attention to original formatting.
Translating a PDF is not simply replacing words. Headings, tables, diagrams, captions and page structure all matter. Preserving those relationships is central to the HIDRA approach.
Translation and layout together
Our workflow aims to retain headings, paragraphs, tables and diagrams in appropriate positions. The outcome depends on the individual source document; exact reproduction is not guaranteed.
Scanned PDFs and Word files
A scanned PDF may require optical character recognition before translation. For Word documents and other formats, we agree on preparation and delivery methods in advance rather than claiming automatic support for every file format.
Frequently asked questions
Can you translate a 100- or 200-page PDF?
We evaluate large documents and provide a quote based on length, languages, structure and technical complexity.
Will the translated PDF look identical?
We work towards high layout fidelity, not guaranteed 100% correspondence. Each assignment is reviewed separately.
What about scanned PDFs?
Image-based documents may need OCR or other preparation before translation.
