Hello,

Does anyone know how I can translate a .pdf from english to dutch?

Sincerely,

Roel.@ !

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.

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..

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.

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.
