Using Pointfire Translation Add-In
Note: click on headers with "+" on the right to expand the section.
What does it do?
PointFire Translator Add-in can translate pages, documents, and list items to all available languages of your site. It can translate both classic and modern pages, including Communication and modern Team sites. By default, it uses SharePoint's Machine Translation Service (MTS) as a translation engine, which is free. MTS provides machine translation of documents and pages, but it cannot translate modern pages, only classic ones, and it doesn’t work on Excel, PowerPoint, or PDF files. If PointFire Translator Server is added and configured in your site, it can translate all those types of documents and pages.
How do I know if the site has PointFire Translator Server?
When translation starts, you will see a progress message saying whether it is using the Machine Translation Service or PointFire Translator Server.
