Can I use Wordbee to translate PDF files?

Question

Does Wordbee Translator support PDF files? How can I use it to translate this file format?

Answer

You can use Wordbee Translator to translate PDF files. PDF is supported through a PDF converter. The PDF file needs to be uploaded to the project library and marked for PDF conversion. The system then adds a Microsoft Word file that tries to respect the layout of the PDF. The Word file can then be marked for subsequent editing or translation. Text contained in images is not extracted. The converter does not do an OCR (optical character recognition). Password-protected PDF files are not supported. More complex files may need additional DTP work.
