Use Google Docs to Translate PDFs
Need to translate a pdf from one language to another? Technology blog Tech Dows advises uploading the pdf to your Google Docs account, then opening the document and click on Tools then Translate document. Google Docs will make a copy of that document in the new language.
I play a lot of board games, many of them from Europe, and at times it can be difficult to find rules in English for newer games rather than German. Using this trick not only provides an English translation, but it also keeps the original copy as well. This trick also works for HTML, ODT, RTF, and DOC files. For more Google Docs tricks, see our guide to using Google Docs to convert file formats.

Google Translate is great as a starting point for when you want to understand something simple written in a foreign language, but it should always be used with a lot of common sense. No one should ever blindly use Google Translate for anything important. I just graduated from teacher training and you always immediately know when one of your pupils used Google Translate...
But of course that's not a problem if you're just trying to learn the basic rules of a board game or whatever.

What a very obscure use for a feature...
Imagine the pitch at google:
A: "I think we should provide translation in google docs"
B: "I agree, but what will people use it for?"
A: "Translating German board game manuels"....

PDFs often hard code line breaks or screw up reading order, and that causes bad segmentation for translators (real and machine). This is a great shortcut, but you would probably be better off copying and pasting, or saving to RTF and fixing order and line breaks and then passing through Google translate for better results.

Good luck with translating "Stanztableaus", "Rahmenteile" and "Entdeckungsplättchen". :D
