Honest scan limits

Image-only PDFs fail early with a clear message instead of gibberish output. Pick source and target languages, review translated text in the preview, then download when layout and terminology look correct for your Korean to English PDF file.

Frequently Asked Questions about Korean to English PDF

Does this work on scanned PDFs?

No — you need a text layer. Image-only scans and screenshot PDFs need OCR first (not available on this page yet). For scanned PDFs or photos of text, run OCR first so the file has a selectable text layer, then upload it to Korean to English PDF.

Will English characters display correctly in the download?

Yes for text-layer PDFs on this page. We rebuild the PDF with fonts that support English and related scripts where needed. The Korean to English PDF keeps your file format where possible — upload, pick languages, preview, then download the translated document from this page.

Can I mix auto-detect with a fixed target language?

Yes. Leave source on auto detect or lock Korean and English explicitly — both work on selectable text PDFs. The Korean to English PDF keeps your file format where possible — upload, pick languages, preview, then download the translated document from this page.

Is there a file size limit?

Uploads are capped at 20 MB per file. If a deck or spreadsheet exceeds the cap, split it into smaller files or export a lighter PDF, then run Korean to English PDF again on each part.

Will layout stay pixel-perfect?

Most body text lands near the original position. Dense layouts and very long translations may wrap differently. Dense slides or narrow columns may wrap after translation; open the download and adjust styling locally if a label overflows.
