# Translating documents

Yandex Translate can translate DOC, DOCX, and PDF text files, XLS and XLSX spreadsheets, and PPT and PPTX presentations.

To translate a document, follow these steps:

1. Drag a document to the **Text** tab or go to the **Documents** tab and select a document.
    
    {% note alert "Restriction" %}
    
    The file shouldn't exceed 5 MB.
    
    {% endnote %}
    
1. Above the file upload window, select the language of the document and the language your want it translated into.

1. Once the document is processed, the translation appears. You can change your target language.

To save the translation to your device, click **Download** to the upper right of the translation. The translation is saved in the original document format.
To view the source and the translation simultaneously, switch your menu view to ![](_image/comparison.png) in the upper-left corner of the page.


## Troubleshooting {#error}

{% cut "The document language doesn't match the source language" %}

Above the file upload window, select the correct language of the document and upload again.

{% endcut %}


{% cut "The document size exceeds 5 MB" %}

Split the file into several parts or [compress it](https://clck.ru/JYwLt).

{% endcut %}


{% cut "Unsupported document format" %}

The file extension must be `.doc`, `.docx`, `.pdf`, `.xls`, `.xlsx`, `.ppt` or `.pptx`. If the file has a different extension, save it in one of the formats listed.

{% endcut %}


{% cut "No internet connection" %}

Restore your internet connection and upload the document.

{% endcut %}


{% cut "I can't download the translation" %}

Check your internet connection. If your connection is OK, send the document you translated [to support](https://yandex.com.tr/support/translate-desktop/en/troubleshooting.md#document-problem-other) and describe the issue. We'll find out why you couldn't download the translation.
