Hello,

a fantastic and much-needed tool for InDesign! The ability to translate an entire document and retain the layout is a huge time-saver, and the support for multiple engines is a brilliant feature. 

One of the biggest challenges I've faced with translations in InDesign is text expansion and contraction. When a block of text is translated from a compact language like English into a more verbose one like German or Spanish, it often overflows its frame, completely breaking the layout. I'm curious to see how LangoAI handles this, or if there's a feature to help manage these common layout issues.

Hello, We're so happy you like our LangoAI InDesign plugin!  Of course, we plan to make it even better. As a designer myself, I experience the text field problems you're facing. We're adding this issue to our to-do list.

One of our biggest challenges developing the translator for the LangoAI InDesign plugin was the inconsistent placement of bold and differently colored words in texts translated into different languages. When creating the LangoAI InDesign plugin, we ensured that sites wouldn't break and that these words, regardless of their position (at the beginning or end of a word), wouldn't lose their styling.

I am having trouble with the plugin landgoAi. I am getting these errors, but the API key is right. It worked when I had a simple one text box paragraph, but when I try to do it on a document that has multiple text boxes, images and layers, it seems to fail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

We're happy to help. I have a few questions to understand the issue; are you experiencing the problem when you click the page translation button, or when you select the text?

I suspect the problem may be with elements that group images and text. Could you please send support@langoai.co the document you're trying to translate (even just one page) so I can identify the source of the problem and get back to you?

Sincerely,
Can Demirel

Not to nitpick, but these are U2U forums for InDesign, not a free advertisement forum nor a help forum for a third party product.

Maybe someone can lock this topic? Like @BobLevine ?

Hi Frans, I completely agree. People experiencing issues with the app have been directed to our support email address. Thanks for the information.

And with that, I'm going to lock this.
