Format breaks easily.
Translating a PDF usually involves a painful choice: Use a basic tool and lose all formatting, or hire an agency to manually rebuild the layout in InDesign.
Flixu decouples content from geometry. We extract the text, translate it with context, and re-inject it into the original coordinate system.
We completely eradicate the Desktop Publishing (DTP) tax. Traditional translation often disrupts document layouts—Flixu extracts text, translates it, and mathematically reconstructs your IDML, DOCX, or PPTX with flawless structural geometry, saving weeks of manual formatting.
Structural Integrity.
Tables stay tables. Headers stay headers. Even complex multi-column layouts in PowerPoint or InDesign files remain intact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to recreate layouts after translation?
+
No. Flixu employs Structural Geometric Parsing to extract raw text, leaving a perfect metadata skeleton of your document. We then rebuild the translation into the original layout automatically, eliminating Desktop Publishing (DTP) tax.
Does Flixu support translation of Adobe InDesign (IDML) files?
+
Yes, Flixu natively supports translating complex nested file formats like IDML, DOCX, YAML, JSON, and Strings without breaking spatial constraints or code variables.
How does the system handle text expansion during localization?
+
Our parser algorithmically calculates text expansion. If a German translation expands by 30% and threatens to overflow the layout bounding box, the AI dynamically makes kerning adjustments or generates spatially efficient synonyms to maintain document geometry.
Do you support Right-to-Left (RTL) languages like Arabic?
+
Yes. Our parsing engine automatically mirrors the alignment and flow of the document when translating into an RTL language, ensuring complete layout compliance.
Can Flixu translate text embedded within images?
+
If the text is baked into a rasterized image, our engine flags it. However, if the text exists as an SVG path or layered vector element, Flixu can securely extract, translate, and re-embed it.
