Arabic documents — government certificates, contracts, bank statements, academic records — are frequently shared as scans or photos. Once the page is a PDF (a phone scanner app makes one in seconds), Reglyph OCRs the Arabic text, removes it cleanly, and typesets the English translation back onto the page so the structure survives the right-to-left to left-to-right flip.
Working from paper? Scan and translate Arabic to English — how to get a usable scan, and what happens to it.
Arabic reads right-to-left and uses connected letterforms, so most translators garble the layout when switching to left-to-right English. Reglyph rebuilds the page after translation, keeping tables, headers, and official stamps aligned.
These are the Arabic-language documents people most often translate to English — each keeps its original layout, seals, and tables.
Drop in a scanned Arabic PDF (one from your phone's scanner app works) or a digital PDF. Image-only PDFs are fine — no text layer needed.
OCR extracts the Arabic text, then it's translated to English while the original text is erased from the page.

Yes. Reglyph reads the right-to-left Arabic, translates it, and lays the English back out left-to-right while preserving the overall page structure.
Yes. Multi-page scanned contracts and single-page certificates both work; tables and signature blocks are preserved.
Yes. Arabic-Indic and Western digits are preserved exactly — important for amounts, ID numbers, and dates on legal documents.
Yes. Photograph or scan the document, save it as a PDF, and upload it — no separate OCR step is needed. Converting Arabic to English also flips the text direction, so the page is rebuilt left-to-right rather than simply having words swapped in place.
For reading, filing and working drafts, this is enough — and it is instant. Where a court or immigration office requires a certified Arabic translation, use the layout-faithful output as the draft a certifying translator reviews and signs; the right-to-left rebuild is already done.

Vision models genuinely read scans now. The question isn't whether ChatGPT can translate your PDF — it's whether a chat reply is actually what you need back.
