What is Readable?

Readable Readable converts English PDF files to Japanese while keeping the original layout intact. It allows users to upload a document, translate it in approximately ten seconds, and view the source and translation side‑by‑side. The tool supports up to 100 pages or 50 MB per file and offers unlimited translation counts.

A Chrome extension provides one‑click translation of documents directly from the browser. The service is integrated with DeepL, so users do not need to manage a separate DeepL subscription. Readable is suited for translators, researchers, business professionals, and academics who need accurate, layout‑preserving PDF translations.
