Translate Document In Word 2010
There are many applications out there, which allow users to translate documents into other languages, but Word 2010 has set a benchmark of providing a great feature that quickly translates text in many languages. If you’re a heavy Word user, you may know that it allows you to directly translate the document without having to launch any third-party text translation application. Microsoft Translator is an efficient tool, integrated into Word 2010 that translates without any issues. The way Office 2010 exchanges text with Microsoft Translator for translation is quite appealing, especially through integrated Mini Translator that allows text to be translated seamlessly. The Mini Translator shows the translated text over the highlighted text. You can easily change the translation language from Language Translation Options and the configure Mini Translator as per your liking. It supports almost all the widely-spoken languages and offers an easy way to quickly switch between the translation language.
