View usage detailsHow do I translate a text passage?
Paste it into Text translation, choose the target language, and review the output beside the source. Add a translation preference if you need a different tone, then copy the result.
Can I make the translation more formal?
Yes. Translation preference accepts a plain instruction such as making the writing more formal. Check that the result still preserves the intended meaning.
Can I translate a whole PDF here?
Use PDF translation for a PDF file. Pasting its extracted text into Text translation is a different workflow and does not preserve the document layout.
Can I share a text translation as a translated file link?
Shared translated files support documents, images, audio, and video. A text translation does not create that kind of shared file. Copy the text or continue in a translated chat.
Can I try it for free?
JotMe has a free plan with usage allowances. Check current pricing and the balance shown in the app before starting. Free does not mean unlimited use, and different tools use different allowances.
Is my content processed online?
Yes. JotMe processes content online, including in the desktop app. Review the privacy guide and your organization’s requirements for the material you plan to use.
Does text translation use AI credits?
Text translation uses chat translation tokens. Documents and images use AI credits, while media dubbing uses translation minutes. Check the balance for the tool you are using rather than treating these units as interchangeable.
