Frequently Asked Questions
What differentiates spf.io’s Slides Translation from Google Translate and other free translation tools?
Spf.io’s multilingual presentation tool goes beyond basic text translation, offering a seamless way to display slides in multiple languages—with just one click. Unlike generic translation tools, spf.io eliminates the need to manually copy-paste text or manage separate slide decks for each language. Simply upload and automatically translate your file, and spf.io lets you present seamlessly on big screens, mobile devices, or live streams in multiple languages—all from a single source.
Additionally, spf.io allows you to review and edit automatic translations, and these corrections help improve future translations. The system automatically applies your edits to the rest of your file and future slides, saving you significant time. The more you use spf.io, the more it adapts to your specific domain and content, resulting in increasingly higher accuracy.

Does spf.io preserve the layout or formatting of my original slide file after I translate it?
Yes, Slides Translation maintains your original layout, including the placement of text, images, videos, and tables. Once you finish reviewing the translations, you can download your multilingual slides as a PDF file.
How do I display captions or subtitles along with my slides on a big screen?
You need to create a session in spf.io, select your languages, and assign your slides there. To display overlay captions over slides, you can only show one language (only those with access to the audience view can see the slides in many languages). You can also display captions at the top or bottom of the screen to prevent interrupting your visual content. Once you set all this up, you can test-run the output of slides in the projector controller and the captions output using the Speaker View or Operator View.
Follow this guide on how to display output on a big screen or extra display.
Disclaimer: If you want to provide live captions and translation while presenting your multilingual slides, you must subscribe to our basic Automatic Captions & Translation (ACT) plan and add Slide Translation as an add-on. You can subscribe to the Document Translation Portal (DTP) plan if you only need the slide translation capability.
Contact us for more information on our subscription plans.
How many team members can collaborate with me?
Spf.io is priced on usage levels rather than per user. This means you can invite as many collaborators as you need to post-edit the translations of your slides.
We built it this way because we believe in community-sourced translation. Many organizations need to make their content available in many languages. To make that affordable, we empower communities with the tools they need to distribute the work among their own staff, volunteers, and members.
Each translation is linked to its source, allowing you to manage it as one logical unit. Your translators or team members can easily review and edit the translation for each target language.
These collaborative features save a lot of time and effort and make delegating work throughout your community a joy rather than a pain.
