AI Screenshot Translator: One-Click Screenshot & Translate 68

ai What is Screenshot Translator?

AI Screenshot Translator is specifically designed to solve the problem of text in foreign-language PDFs being impossible to copy. Users can capture screenshots with a predefined hotkey, recognize and translate the text in images with one click, thereby solving the issue of mathematical formulas in PDFs being difficult to copy. It also supports user-defined API interfaces, is compatible with multiple mainstream translation models, supports multi-window management, and allows comparison of translation results.

Core Features

• Screenshot Translation: Supports custom hotkeys (default ALT+X); after selecting the area to be translated, the content is automatically sent to the AI model for processing.

• Multi-Window Management: Supports snapshot and translation stickers; all translation stickers can be freely dragged and resized, and multiple groups of translation stickers can be created.

• Formula Handling: Supports restoring original text, making it easy for users to copy formula content.

• Custom API Interface: Users can customize API interfaces to enhance the tool's flexibility and extensibility.

• System Tray Operation: Supports running in the system tray — open it when in use, and it won't take up system buttons when not in use.

Pain Points Solved

• Says goodbye to the bulkiness of commonly seen whole-document translation tools on the market.

• Solves the problem of messy formatting or inability to copy formula blocks in PDFs.

• Supports image-scanned PDFs, solving the issue of text being impossible to copy.
