There is no such option in Acrobat itself.

We can provide you a functionality to recognize text from an image (in document's language). Now you can use any other translator(like Google Translator) to translate it.

Thanks.

Same problem, roughly:  I have a document in Polish that I need to run through OCR/translation into English.  I was able to run the text recognition program, in Polish, but now where can I go to translate that from Polish to English?  Thanks very much.

Sorry to say, but Acrobat doesn't support this functionality. You can use any translator for this(like Google Translator).

I can raise a feature request for you. It will be reviewed and prioritized by the team.

Thanks.

Thanks. It would be a great feature. As it is, we have run the document through the text reader, OCR, then cut and paste through a translation program. It seems like Adobe could merge these functions.

Thanks.

It is hard to believe, but even with all of the bells and whistles and AI LLM capabilities, Adobe is still useless when it comes to translating documents.  You must still download and convert to another Microsoft or Google product.

I just found out probably the easiest way to translate a PDF. Export the file to HTML web page, and Google translate on chrome will automatically translate it for you. 

 

File>Export to> HTML Web Page

For a paid program this should be a standard feature just sayin..
