Translate PDFs with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or your own local AI
A machine translation is only as good as the model behind it, and the best model depends on the language pair. AllofPDF lets you pick: translate a PDF with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, HyperCLOVA X or another of 20+ AIs, or with a local model that never leaves your PC. The original and the translation appear side by side, and you can export the result as TXT, DOCX or Markdown. The app itself is free.

AllofPDF runs on Windows 10 and 11 PCs and on Android 7+ phones and tablets.
How to translate a PDF
- Open the PDF in AllofPDF (run OCR first if it is a scan) and choose Translate in the AI panel.
- Select the target language and the AI to use: a cloud model you trust or a local model in Ollama or LM Studio.
- Review the original and the translation side by side and check key terms and numbers.
- Export the translation as TXT, DOCX or Markdown to edit it further or share it.
Why translate PDFs in AllofPDF
The best AI for each language
Some models shine with Chinese, others with Korean or European languages. Switch providers any time without switching apps.
Side-by-side review
Source and translation sit next to each other, so checking a contract clause or a technical term takes seconds.
Clean, editable output
You get plain text as TXT, DOCX or Markdown. AllofPDF does not rebuild the PDF layout, so you stay in control of the final document.
Tips for accurate translations
Clean text translates best: for scanned pages, run OCR first with the right recognition language. For contracts and technical documents, pick a strong cloud model and review key terms in the side-by-side view. For confidential files, use a local model in Ollama or LM Studio so nothing leaves your PC. Export to DOCX when you want to format the translation, or to Markdown for wikis and notes.
Private by default, even with AI
- Cloud AI is off until you turn it on. Out of the box, AllofPDF sends nothing anywhere.
- When you use a cloud AI, only the passages relevant to your request go straight to the provider you chose — not the whole file, and never through our servers.
- Local AI (the built-in model, Ollama or LM Studio) runs on your PC, so the document never leaves the device and everything works offline.
Use the AI you already trust
Choose from 20+ providers: sign in once with OpenRouter, paste your own API key, run a free model on your PC, or hand the question to a web AI you already pay for.

Frequently asked questions
Is the PDF translator free?
The app is free, and so is translating with a local model. If you use a cloud AI with your own API key, the provider bills the usage directly to your account.
Does it keep the original PDF layout?
No. AllofPDF shows the translation next to the original text and exports it as TXT, DOCX or Markdown. It does not rewrite the PDF itself.
Which AIs can translate?
Any connected provider, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, GLM, HyperCLOVA X, Solar and Mistral, plus local models in Ollama or LM Studio.
Is my document sent to a server?
Cloud AI is off by default. When you use it, the text being translated goes directly to the provider you pick, never through our servers. Local models keep everything on your PC.
Can I translate scanned PDFs?
Yes. Run the offline OCR first to add a text layer, then translate.
