How to translate a CSV
Upload the CSV and get it back translated, whole, keeping the text in the order it was written.
CSV is a table saved as text: rows, columns, and whatever was typed in each cell.
From a CSV to another language, step by step
- 1
Upload the document
Drag the CSV in. The text is pulled out of it — you do not have to copy it into a box or export it to anything else first.
- 2
We count the characters
The price is the number of characters, counted before anything runs, so you know what it costs before waiting.
- 3
It is translated
Whole, in order, into as many of the fourteen languages as you asked for.
What you get
- The full text, translated, in the order it was written.
- As many of the fourteen languages as you asked for.
- Each language as its own file.
What it costs
40 € per million characters
A million characters is around 170,000 words, or a book. Most documents are a fraction of a cent — a twenty-page report is a few céntimos.
The text is what travels: layout, images and tables come back as the text they contain, not as a rebuilt copy of the original. A PDF that is only scanned images has no text to pull and cannot be translated this way.
Questions people ask
- Do I get the CSV back with its layout?
- No, and this is the honest answer rather than the flattering one: what comes back is the translated text, not your document rebuilt. If the layout has to survive, translate the text and pour it back into your own template.
- Is there a size limit for a CSV?
- The price is per character and it is counted first, so a long document costs more but does not fail for being long. Anything unusually large, tell us and we will look at it.
- Is what I upload kept?
- The file is used to do the job and is not kept afterwards, nor used to train anything. What was in your document stays yours.
