Upload any image containing text and convert it into another language. Pixazo's AI detects embedded text, translates it, and replaces it while preserving the original layout, fonts, and visual composition. No source files needed.
Translate Text in Image NowPixazo's Translate Text in Image tool detects text embedded in any JPG, PNG, or WebP image, translates it into 50+ target languages using neural machine translation, removes the original characters, reconstructs the background, and renders the translated copy in a visually matched font — all without source design files. The output is a finished, design-ready image at the original resolution.
Marketing teams use it to localize ad creatives across regions in minutes. Product managers translate annotated UI screenshots for multilingual help centers. Content creators adapt social media graphics and infographics without reopening Figma or Photoshop.
The tool handles multiple text blocks simultaneously, supports right-to-left scripts like Arabic and Hebrew with automatic direction adjustment, and adjusts font size or letter spacing when translated text is longer than the original. It works best with clear, high-contrast printed text against solid or gradient backgrounds. Decorative fonts, handwritten text, and busy photographic backgrounds behind text are harder cases where manual review is recommended.
Pixazo supports translation to and from over 50 languages, including all major European, Asian, and Middle Eastern language families. High-resource pairs like English-Spanish or English-French produce highly natural translations. Lower-resource pairs — say Finnish to Thai — work but may benefit from a quick human review. RTL scripts like Arabic and Hebrew are supported with automatic text direction adjustment.
Translating text in any image takes four simple steps: upload your file, let the AI scan it, choose your target language, and download the finished result.
Upload any JPG, PNG, or WebP image containing the text you want to translate. For the best results, use the highest resolution version available. The AI needs clear, readable text against a distinguishable background to perform accurate detection.
The AI automatically scans your image using optical character recognition to detect every text region. It identifies bounding boxes, estimates font size, detects color values, and maps the spatial relationship between text blocks — no manual selection required.
Select your target language from 50+ supported options and the AI translates all detected text using neural machine translation. It preserves meaning, adapts phrasing to sound natural, and handles right-to-left scripts like Arabic and Hebrew automatically.
The AI removes the original text, reconstructs the background behind it, and renders the translated copy in a visually matched font — matching weight, size, style, and color. Download the finished, design-ready image at the same resolution as your original.
These are actual image translation results shared by Pixazo users. Each entry shows the source and target language, the context, and the prompt used.
“We had 400+ annotated UI screenshots in our English help center. Recreating each in Japanese would have taken our design team weeks. Pixazo translated the text overlays while keeping all arrows, highlights, and callout boxes intact. About 85% needed zero touch-ups.”
“We sourced packaging mockups from our German manufacturer. Needed English versions for our US Kickstarter campaign photos. Pixazo translated the label text and kept the packaging design completely intact. Backers thought the product was already localized.”
“We run Facebook and Instagram ads across 4 Arabic-speaking markets. The RTL text rendering was handled correctly without manual adjustment. Headlines, CTAs, and body text all read naturally. Our Arabic copywriter only flagged 2 out of 30 images for minor phrasing tweaks.”
“I photograph menus in Korean restaurants and translate them to English for my blog readers. The AI handles the Hangul detection well and the translated text fits neatly into the original layout. Some decorative fonts needed a second pass, but overall it saves hours per blog post.”
Teams use AI image translation wherever text is baked into visual assets that need localization. These are the five workflows where it removes the biggest bottleneck.
Running a campaign in Spanish that you need in French and German? Upload the creative and select your target languages. Pixazo translates the text layer while keeping your brand colors, imagery, and layout exactly as they were designed. Performance marketing teams use this for rapid localization without resending assets to a designer. The output is production-ready, not a rough draft requiring Photoshop cleanup. For campaigns with tight deadlines across multiple regions, this eliminates the designer bottleneck entirely.
Social media content often features text baked directly into images — quotes, CTAs, announcements, event dates. Rather than recreating each post from scratch for different audiences, upload the finished graphic and output a translated version. The background, brand colors, and overall composition remain untouched; only the text layer changes. Community managers running multilingual accounts across Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn find this particularly valuable during product launches when dozens of assets need simultaneous localization.
Product teams documenting features in multiple languages can translate annotated screenshots directly. If you have a walkthrough image showing English UI labels, Pixazo converts those labels into the target language without distorting the screenshot itself. This speeds up documentation workflows significantly, especially for SaaS companies expanding into new markets. Help center articles, onboarding guides, and feature announcements all benefit. One technical writer reported translating over 400 annotated screenshots for a Japanese product launch in a single afternoon.
Event posters, restaurant menus, informational flyers — these are often designed once and need rapid conversion for multilingual audiences. The AI identifies text regions, translates them, and maintains the typographic hierarchy so headings stay prominent and body text stays readable. This is especially useful for hospitality businesses in tourist areas, international conference organizers, and retail chains operating across language regions. The key advantage is working directly on the exported image when source files are lost or unavailable.
Infographics contain multiple text blocks — titles, axis labels, annotations, callouts, and footnotes. Pixazo processes each text region independently, so a bar chart label gets translated without affecting the axis labels or the title. This is useful for reports and presentations targeting international stakeholders. Consulting firms, NGOs publishing multilingual reports, and research teams sharing findings across borders all rely on this workflow. Each text block maintains its position and relative size within the overall graphic.
Pixazo replaces the entire manual pipeline — extract text, translate separately, paste back, fix fonts — with a single automated pass. Traditional overlay tools leave the original text visible and use generic fonts; Pixazo removes the source text, reconstructs the background, and renders matched typography.
AI image text translation is powerful but has specific constraints. Understanding these four limitations upfront helps you set the right expectations and get the best results.
The tool does not auto-translate detected text. After the AI scans and identifies text regions in your image, you need to manually enter or review the translated text for each block before applying changes. This gives you full control over accuracy but means the translation step is not fully automated.
The translated text is rendered at the same size as the original. If your translated text is longer or shorter than the source, you cannot manually adjust the font size to compensate. The text will fit within the original bounding box at the original size, which may cause overflow or leave extra space for some language pairs.
The tool only modifies text regions in the image. You cannot change colors, move elements, resize objects, or edit any non-text part of the image. If you need to adjust layout, graphics, or background elements alongside the text translation, those changes require a separate design tool.
Text overlapping busy photographs with many colors and textures may result in imperfect background reconstruction after replacement. Clean, solid, or gradient backgrounds yield the best results. Photographic backgrounds with fine detail behind text are the hardest case.
We run Facebook ads in 6 languages. Pixazo cut our creative localization time from 2 days to 15 minutes. The translated images look like they were designed natively — not pasted over. Our help center had 400+ annotated screenshots that needed translating for the Japanese launch. Pixazo handled the bulk of it in an afternoon. Some needed minor touch-ups, but the time savings were enormous.
Pixazo accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP formats. For the best results, upload the highest resolution version available so the AI can clearly detect all text regions in the image. Heavily compressed images with visible artifacts around text edges may reduce detection accuracy.
The AI detects and highlights all text regions in your image automatically, but the translation step is manual. You enter or paste the translated text for each detected block before applying changes. This gives you full control over accuracy, tone, and phrasing rather than relying on automated machine translation that may miss context or nuance.
No. The translated text is rendered at the same size as the original to preserve the design layout. If your translated text is significantly longer or shorter than the source, it will still occupy the same bounding box at the same font size. For cases where the translation length differs dramatically, consider adjusting your phrasing to better fit the available space.
No. The Translate Text tool only modifies text regions in the image. Background elements, colors, graphics, shapes, and overall layout remain completely unchanged. If you need to adjust non-text elements alongside text translation, use Pixazo's other AI tools or a separate design tool for those changes.
Text on solid or gradient backgrounds produces the cleanest results. When text sits on top of busy photographic backgrounds with many colors, textures, and fine details, the background reconstruction after text replacement may show minor imperfections. For best results, use images where text is placed against clean, distinguishable backgrounds.
No. The output image maintains the same resolution and dimensions as the input. Only the areas where text was detected and replaced are modified — the rest of the image remains identical. There is no downsampling or quality reduction during the translation process.
Upload an image with text in any language, choose your target language, and let the AI handle text detection, translation, and rendering. No design skills required.
