Translate a brochure or flyer
Get your brochures, flyers and sales decks into another language, with the design kept, as a draft to polish.
Don't upload confidential documents on the free tier. Why?
Marketing material is designed to fit: headlines sized to a box, short bullet points, text wrapped around images. DropTranslate translates the words inside Word and PowerPoint files without touching the design, and rebuilds PDFs as closely as it can with an editable copy. That gives you a fast draft of a brochure, flyer or sales deck in the new language. Marketing copy is where literal translation shows most, so plan a review by someone who writes well in the target language, especially for headlines and slogans.
Marketing needs a native review
Machine translation gets the meaning across, but marketing copy depends on tone, wordplay and local expectations. Treat the result as a draft and have a native writer review headlines, slogans and claims, especially any product claims that are regulated in the target market.
Good for
- First drafts of brochures, flyers and one-pagers for new markets
- Translating sales decks and product sheets
- Understanding a competitor's or partner's materials
Before you translate
- Headlines and slogans rarely work word for word. Have them rewritten by a native writer.
- Longer languages may overflow designed boxes; check every page.
- Text inside images and logos isn't translated.
- For print, get the final file from your designer's original source, not from the translated PDF.
Questions
Which file should I upload?
The editable source: PowerPoint or Word keep the design exactly. Design-tool files aren't supported, but a PDF export works with a best-effort layout and a DOCX copy.
Will the text fit?
Often, but languages such as German or French can run longer than English. Check every page and shorten or resize where needed.
Are images translated?
No. Text that is part of an image stays as it is.
