Translate PDF Documents Into Other Languages Using OnlineDocTranslator.
First of the bat is OnlineDocTranslator which has proven to be quite a popular tool for translating PDF documents into other languages. Simply visit the home page, upload a PDF file you’d like translated, select a language you’d like it translated to, then wait for the output file.
OnlineDocTranslator has over 100+ languages available so you shouldn’t have any trouble finding the language you are looking for. Although the translations are quite good the format of the output file isn’t always the best, as content generally loses its formatting. As well as PDF files you can also use OnlineDocTranslator to translate content from DOCX, DOC, TXT, ODS, ODT, Excel (XLSX and XLS) documents, and quite a few others.

Translate PDF Documents Into Other Languages Using Google Translate.
Although almost everyone is aware that Google Chrome can translate websites and Google Translate can translate text. Not everyone is aware that Google Translate can also translate PDF documents. Simply upload a PDF file you’d like translated, set the output language you’d like the document translated too, then click the translate button and the file will be converted.
Surprisingly Google translate doesn’t work as well as OnlineDocTranslate as the output source isn’t saved as a PDF file, so you will need to manually use the translated text to create a new PDF file. However, if you are just looking to read the information contained in the document, it’s good enough for the job.
