Reglyph is a web app for translating scanned and image-only PDFs without losing their layout. Ordinary translators give you a wall of reflowed text; Reglyph gives you back a page that looks like the original.
It reads the page with OCR, erases the source text from the image, translates it, and sets the translation back into the original positions. Columns, tables, figures, stamps, signature lines and numbers stay where they were.
It's built for the documents people actually need translated: birth and marriage certificates, school transcripts, contracts, technical manuals and academic papers, across 19 languages including Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Hindi, Portuguese, Korean and Russian. A bilingual side-by-side PDF (original left, translation right) is also available.
The free pages are the real thing: every new account gets 5 pages, and you download the full translated PDF with no watermark. No credit card needed.
Who it's for: anyone dealing with official or formatted documents that arrive as scans. People moving or studying abroad who need to read certificates, transcripts and diplomas; businesses translating contracts, invoices and reports; researchers reading foreign-language papers; engineers working through manuals and datasheets. It's machine translation, so for official submissions have a certified translator review the result; the layout-matched draft makes that review faster.
