Translate a PDF, then check it against the original

by•

The sentence you need is there. It is just in another language.

I’m Kiana, the maker of Ponte at Bothmade. Ponte translates PDFs on iPhone and iPad, then gives you a comfortable place to read the result and compare passages with the original.

Import a PDF from Files, choose the language and pages, approve the credit spend limit, and translate. Adjust text size and spacing as you read. When a phrase deserves a closer look, bring up the source passage to check its wording and context.

That comparison matters for a paper you are studying, a document you need to understand, or a text you are using to practise another language. A readable translation should also be easy to question. Check important names, numbers and passages against the source.

You can explore the comparison experience before buying credits: open Ponte’s prepared French sample, select a passage, and compare it with the English original. This is a prepared example, not a live translation benchmark. Sample documents and a walkthrough are at .

Cloud Translate and Explain use optional consumable credits. There is no subscription; credits stay on the device. Import, on-device Restore, OCR and reading are free.

Ponte launches here on 25 October. What kind of PDF would you want to translate, and what would you check first in the result?
