Use Google Docs to Translate PDFsNeed to translate a pdf from one language to another? Technology blog Tech Dows advises uploading the pdf to your Google Docs account, then opening the document and click on Tools then Translate document. Google Docs will make a copy of that document in the new language.

I play a lot of board games, many of them from Europe, and at times it can be difficult to find rules in English for newer games rather than German. Using this trick not only provides an English translation, but it also keeps the original copy as well. This trick also works for HTML, ODT, RTF, and DOC files. For more Google Docs tricks, see our guide to using Google Docs to convert file formats.
