Translating PDFs

Lorenzo Martinelli has posted a review of InFix, a PDF editor that would allow to extract text from a PDF document, translate it and reconvert your translation to the original PDF format.

This description is taken from www.iceni.com:
Fast, flexible, flawless PDF editing Infix PDF editor lets you open, edit and save PDF files. It’s easy and quick – you can change text, fonts, images and more. And, unlike other PDF editors, it works like normal word processing software, so it’s really easy to use. Sort out typos: correct mistakes in PDF files quickly. Reuse your PDFs: edit any PDF, without the source file Use less paper: fill in forms without printing It doesn't matter whether you change a single word, a paragraph, or an entire page. Infix is the only PDF editor that covers your back, reflowing and reformatting text to keep it looking good. Once you’ve saved a file, you can’t even tell it’s been edited.

Interesting. I've often had trouble working with PDFs, especially when it comes to copying data - I usually paste it in a text file and then take from there. I'm going to have a look at that tool.

Infix is a great tool for editing text in PDFs. I need to alter PDFs of restaurant menus, specifically wine lists. Infix works better than any other tool I have tried because it allows me to make text revisions (prices, descriptions) without altering the design or content of the PDF in unpredictable ways. Its very stable and does the job.
