About Translate Word

Translate Word documents with this online DOC translator and get back a file you can keep editing, not a wall of pasted text. Headings keep their styles, tables keep their cells and images stay where they were. Headers and footers are translated as well, and bold or italic words inside a sentence keep their formatting.

Upload a DOCX, DOC, ODT or RTF file and choose the language under Translate to. It works for a policy you share with overseas staff, a CV for a job abroad or a manual for a new market. When a Chinese document goes into English or another Latin-script language, Chinese fonts in the translated text are swapped for Times New Roman or Arial. Treat the result as a solid draft and have a fluent reader check anything that goes out under your name.

FAQ

Translate Word: questions and answers

Will my formatting survive when I translate Word files?
Yes. Styles, tables, images, headers and footers stay in place, and bold or italic words keep their look. Longer translations can push text onto the next page, so check the page breaks. Pictures with words in them can be translated on their own with Translate Image.
Can I translate Word documents in DOC or RTF format?
Yes. DOC, ODT and RTF are accepted as well as DOCX. For a PDF, use Translate PDF, which keeps the page layout.
Can I use the translation for official documents?
Use it as a draft. It gives you a solid starting point, but a fluent person should review contracts, medical text and anything official before it's sent.
Is Word translation free?
Free accounts can translate 2 documents a day, up to 50 MB and 40,000 characters each. VIP has no daily limit and handles documents up to 1 GB.
What happens to my document after translation?
It's deleted automatically after one hour. The upload is encrypted, the job runs in an isolated process, and your text is never used to train AI.
