Please excuse my lack of html or IT experience.
I have been stuck for over a week, trying everything to no avail, with
the same problem, and if I didn't live on the ground floor, I would
have thrown myself out of the window!
I am building a website with a wysiwyg programme, I have embedded
google translate flags, for 13 languages, and it transalates
seemlessly. Once a flag is clicked it translates the current page and
every subsequesnt webpage selected afterwards, it works really well.
Each flag clicked changes all text to relevant language for each page
clicked.
The dilema is this, There are many .pdf files embedded (with direct
linking) all in english and some powerpoint slides I converted
to .jpeg. Now I want to work out a way that google can translate the
text on these inline. I am aware you can go to google translate and
upload an individual file and pick a language (that does work). but
its a bit cumbersome. If I could get the .pdf or .ppt onto the webpage
directly google could do it for me I think?
I have tried embed tags, iframes and none translate as it seems google
only tranlates the url and not the embed objects. I have converted one
ppt to an html file which i cannot work out how to get onto the
webpage.
I am desperately trying to find the way that if someone non english
speaking clicked on a link the .pdf or .ppt will be on our own website
webpage (our url) so google translator will translate it automatically
inline in the language already selected, like all the webpage text it
does so well.
Or if there is any other way in any file format so that it can work.
Getting a .pdf or .ppt or even the .html onto the webpage (not flash
format) is puting years on me?
Can anyone help me. please bear in mind I am of limited know how. My
HTML knowledge is copy and paste and nothing more. Google translator
is fantastic but half our site is embedded .pdf and .ppt files in
english that don't translate.
Thank you very much for any help.
