Use case
One group, two languages, zero backlog.
Multinational GCC groups run on documents that must exist in Arabic and English: HR policies, board packs, supplier contracts, KPI sheets, training decks. TranslateX translates them in batches with layout preserved, meets employees inside Word, PowerPoint, and Windows itself, and gives the translation lead reports to run it all.
The bilingual enterprise
Every department has documents
waiting in the other language.
Al Dana Holdings operates across the GCC: an English-speaking board, Arabic-speaking operations, suppliers in both. HR, finance, legal, and communications all queue for the same overloaded translation desk. TranslateX clears the queue.
Policies, packs, contracts
The paperwork of a group,
translated in batches.
The month-end pile is predictable: the updated HR policy for Arabic-speaking staff, the board pack for the English-speaking board, the supplier contract for procurement, the safety training deck for the field teams. TranslateX takes them as one batch, up to 10 files and 100 MB each, and returns each file as a translated copy in its original format and design.
Yousef Al-Farsi in operations uploads the batch before lunch; department reviewers check their own documents in the editor; nothing is retyped and nothing is reformatted.
- PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and images in one batch
- Fonts, tables, and slide structure preserved per file
- Per-file language pairs, progress tracking, and folders per project
One batch, five departments served. Each file comes back as a translated copy next to the original.
Excel, finally
KPI sheets are documents too.
Finance lives in Excel, and Excel is where most translation tools give up. TranslateX translates XLSX and CSV files as documents: column headers, row labels, and notes move to the target language while the sheet structure and the figures stay exactly where they were. The automated QA that checks numbers on contracts checks them here too, which is precisely where a wrong digit hurts most.
- XLSX and CSV translated with structure intact
- Labels and notes translated, figures untouched
- Number checks run on every segment
Headers, labels, and notes translated; the sheet structure, formulas, and figures untouched.
Where people already work
Translation that meets employees
inside their tools.
Most enterprise translation never reaches a specialist. It is an HR officer with a policy in Word, an analyst with a deck due at four. They should not need a new tool for that.
Office add-ins and right-click
In Word, in PowerPoint, in Explorer.
Inside Microsoft Office, TranslateX translates the open document directly: a section of the policy in Word, or every slide in the deck with Translate all slides in PowerPoint. Outside Office, any file in Windows Explorer translates from the right-click menu, and a fully translated copy appears next to the original. For everything else on screen, F6 captures and translates it on the spot.
Because glossary, memory, and style governance apply to every route, the self-serve translation an employee makes still uses the terminology the organization approved.
- Word and PowerPoint add-ins, including Translate all slides
- Right-click translation for any file in Windows
- Organization glossary and style enforced on every job

Running it at scale
Give the translation lead
a dashboard, not a mailbox.
When translation becomes self-serve, someone still owns quality and volume. Reports make that job measurable.
Reports for translation leads
Who translates what, and how much.
The workspace summary shows projects, documents, words translated, and active users; activity charts show volume over time; top-user views show where demand comes from. QA reports export as CSV, so the translation lead can show the quality trail behind the volume. Roles keep it governed: admins and managers run the workspace, translators and reviewers work the queue, viewers read.
- Workspace summary: documents, words, active users
- Translation activity over time and top users
- QA report exports as CSV
Workspace summary, activity over time, top users, and QA reports exported as CSV.

Frequently asked questions
Can TranslateX handle Excel files?
Yes, and this is rarer than it should be. XLSX and CSV files translate as documents: headers, labels, and notes move to the target language while the sheet structure and figures stay untouched, and automated number checks verify nothing drifted.
How many files can we translate at once?
Up to 10 files per batch, up to 100 MB each, mixing PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and images, with a language pair per file. Folders and projects keep department batches organized, with progress tracking and webhooks on completion.
Do employees need training to use it?
Very little. They translate where they already work: directly inside Word and PowerPoint with the add-ins, by right-clicking a file in Windows Explorer, or with F6 for anything on screen. The organization's glossary and style apply automatically either way. See Office add-ins.
How do we keep quality consistent across departments?
One workspace glossary enforces group terminology on every job, translation memory reuses approved wording, and the review editor with QA checks handles documents that need a human pass. Roles decide who translates, who reviews, and who administers. See glossary and memory.
What does the translation lead get for oversight?
A workspace summary of documents, words, and active users, translation activity over time, top users, and QA reports that export as CSV. See reports and analytics.
Translate the document. Keep the design.
Right-click a file, work inside Office, or press F6 on anything on screen. TranslateX returns the same document in the other language: fonts, tables, and layout intact, terminology on brand.
