Translate Word (.docx) From English to German
Upload a Word (.docx) file in English and download the same file in German. This page sets out exactly what “the same file” means for this format, this source language and this target — including what still does not work.
What Survives When You Translate Word (.docx)
- Styles, numbering and list levels are edited in place, so a heading stays a heading and an auto-numbered clause keeps its number.
- Images, charts and text boxes keep their anchors. Nothing is re-flowed into a fresh document.
- Headers, footers, footnotes and table cells are translated as part of the same document instead of being skipped.
- Inline formatting survives the run boundaries Word splits sentences into, so bold stays on the words that were bold.
Producing German
German is available in every format we support, Word (.docx) included. Latin, Cyrillic and Greek targets are not limited by the output format, because the fonts our overlay ships already render them.
Which Languages Each Format SupportsReading English
English is written in the Latin alphabet, which every extraction path here reads without a special case: a born-digital file gives up its text layer directly.

Both panes below are renders of a real file this engine produced — the original on one side, our output on the other. Drag the seam.
What This Does Not Do
- Translated text is often longer than the source. In a fixed-height text box or a one-page form that can move a line onto the next page — the document stays valid, the pagination can shift.
- Anything the verify stage cannot confirm falls back to the source text, visible and untranslated. A file that looks finished but is not is the one outcome we will not ship.

Try It on Your Own File
No card and no per-file character minimum. If a segment cannot be translated confidently you will see it fall back, rather than a green tick over a guess.
