Translation quality & format preservation: - Word: merge adjacent same-format runs into one unit (sentence-level coherence like inline-tag handling); translate comments/balloons; dedupe textbox collection (was translated twice); RTL no longer overrides center/justify alignment; CJK/Arabic font hints (eastAsia/cs) - PPTX: chart translations now actually reach the output file (ChartPart.blob is read-only — rewrite chart XML in the saved ZIP); CJK typeface hints (a:ea) - Excel: sheet renames no longer break references — rewrite cell formulas (3D/quoted), defined names, data validations, cond. formats - PDF: bold/italic honored (hebo/heit/hebi); table cells never merge; unchanged blocks left untouched (typography preserved, fixes duplicate hyperlinks); attempted/changed stats + route gate now cover PDF; CJK font paths; scanned PDFs via Mistral OCR (detection + admin settings) Features: - formality param (formal/informal) + automatic regional-variant prompts - output_mode=bilingual docx (source above translation) - per-user translation memory on Redis (falls back to LRU), context-hashed - QA report + 0-100 confidence score in job status; L0 on by default - OpenAI-compatible providers: whole chunk in ONE numbered-JSON request (~15x fewer calls) with per-item fallback; base prompt always present (custom prompt no longer replaces translation instructions) Infra & marketing alignment: - plan-based engine gating + vision gating (closes paid-engine leak); /providers/available filtered per plan; 107 languages exposed - zh-CN/zh-TW validation fixed; libmagic disabled on Windows (native crash) - admin: Mistral OCR settings + engine status dashboard; httpx<0.28 pin (TestClient breakage); Prometheus test fixture fixed - marketing docs aligned with code (PDF+OCR, retention, engines, pricing) - security: .env.ionos/.env.production/provider_settings.json removed Tests: 1173 passed / 0 failed (6 network tests deselected: free Google endpoint temporarily blocked from this machine)

T1 (accroche + GIF) Your Excel got translated. Now fix the 47 broken merged cells, 12 dead formulas and the slide deck that lost its layout.
That's what "free" translation tools actually cost.
We built the opposite. Thread:
T2 (le problème) Every translator you've used works the same way:
- Flatten your document to plain text
- Translate the text
- Hope it fits back
The "hope" step is where your afternoon goes.
T3 (notre approche) Office Translator works in place:
• Parse the real structure (cells, runs, shapes) • Extract ONLY the translatable content • Translate it • Write it back into the SAME structure
Merges, formulas, fonts, borders: untouched.
T4 (preuve) [Capture d'écran : résultat côte à côte — original FR vs traduit EN, mêmes colonnes/fusions/formules]
Same file. Different language. Zero reformatting.
T5 (multi-moteurs) You pick the engine per document — 7 options:
• Google — free, fast • DeepL — best for business text • Google Cloud • DeepSeek / Gemini / Claude via OpenRouter — eco & premium LLM tiers • OpenAI, Grok (xAI)
Cheap for drafts. Premium LLM for the client deliverable.
T6 (glossaires) The feature agencies love: custom glossaries.
Lock "unité de froid → chiller", "clause de résiliation → termination clause" once. Every document after that uses your terminology. Consistent, every time.
T7 (confidentialité) Your documents are not our training data.
• Uploads deleted after 30 min, results within 2 h • Zero data retention • Encrypted in transit (TLS) • No human ever sees your content
T8 (API) Wiring it into your own stack? Business plan includes API access — 10,000 calls/month.
Submit file → poll job → download. Same workflow as the web app. Docs at /docs.
T9 (prix) Pricing (yearly = −20%):
• Free — 2 docs/mo, no card • Starter — €9 • Pro — €19 (AI translation, glossaries) • Business — €49 (API, 5 seats) • Enterprise — custom
A page translated costs a fraction of a cent. A human does the same page for €1–2.
T10 (pour qui) Built for: • International SMEs (pricing sheets, contracts, manuals) • Translation agencies (first-pass + glossaries = faster turnaround) • Multilingual HR teams • Anyone who's ever re-built a translated Excel by hand
T11 (preuve sociale + CTA) 60+ languages. 7 engines. 100% format preservation.
Free plan = 2 full documents/month, no card required. Test it on your ugliest file.
T12 (CTA final) 👉 wordly.art
