The Document Translator app and the associated source code<\/a> demonstrate how Microsoft Translator can be integrated into enterprise and business workflows. The app allows you to rapidly translate documents, individually or in batches, with full fidelity\u2014keeping formatting such as headers and fonts intact, and allowing you to continue editing if necessary. Using the Document Translator code and documentation, developers can learn how to incorporate the functionality of the Microsoft Translator cloud service into a custom workflow, or add extensions and modifications to the batch translation app experience. Document Translator is a showcase for use of the Microsoft Translator API<\/a> to increase productivity in a multi-language environment, released as an open source project on GitHub.<\/p>\n

Whether you are writing in Word, pulling together the latest numbers into Excel, or creating presentations in PowerPoint, documents are at the center of many of your everyday activities. When your team speaks multiple languages, quick and efficient translation is essential to your organization’s communication and productivity. Microsoft Translator already brings the speed and efficiency of automatic translation to Office, Yammer, as well as a number of other apps, websites and workflows. Document Translator uses the power of the Translator API to accelerate the translation of large numbers of Word, PDF*, PowerPoint, or Excel documents into all the languages<\/a> supported by Microsoft Translator.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Document Translator highlights several key features of the Translator API that were designed with businesses and developers in mind: enable the no-trace option<\/a> on your translated content by using your no-trace enabled Client ID in situations that require greater privacy, and connect to the Microsoft Translator Hub<\/a> to create your own custom translation system using your organization’s and industry’s unique terminology. These features are available to anyone creating custom products and apps with the Translator API.<\/p>\n

To get started with Document Translator and to begin developing your own apps, all you need is credentials for the Microsoft Translator API. To run the app, you will just need to input your credentials in the Settings tab. If you are new to the API, sign up for your free 2 million characters per month subscription to the API by going to the Microsoft Azure Marketplace<\/a>, or get detailed instructions on Translator MSDN<\/a>. <\/a><\/p>\n
