Unable to load translation resources when using a portal

When Google Cloud administrators create a portal, Translation Hub assigns the portal a service account. Use Identity and Access Management to check that the service account was assigned the Translation Hub Portal User role, which allows portal users to view and use translation resources. For more information, see Enable users to request translations.

Overlapping text

In some cases, native PDF translations might include translated text overlaid on the source text. Typically, these cases include multiple layers of text, like when selectable text is on top of a background image that also includes text.

Convert the PDF document to an image and then translate it. To do this conversion, you can use Chrome (print as image) or other third-party tools. Converting the PDF to an image enables Translation Hub to process the document as a scanned PDF.
