English
The most common source; from English into Persian or Arabic, the layout turns right-to-left too.
LANGUAGES
Translation between 10 languages, each in its own direction.
English, Persian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Arabic and Turkish, from any of them into any other. The text goes straight from the source language into the target, and when the writing direction changes, the layout is mirrored with it; the format, tables and pictures stay in place.
The languages Goftito translates
The same list the translation form offers; each card also says which way the language is written.
Persian
فارسیFrom Persian into English and other languages too: tables and pictures go back to their places in a left-to-right document.
German
DeutschLetters such as ä, ö, ü and ß come out right, and the document keeps its direction.

NederlandsLeft-to-right; from English into Dutch the layout is left as it is.
Russian
РусскийCyrillic script, left-to-right; from Persian into Russian, the layout turns left-to-right.
Arabic
العربيةRight-to-left like Persian; between Arabic and Persian the direction stays and so does the layout.
Turkish
TürkçeTurkish letters such as ş, ğ, ı and İ come out right.
Three cases, three kinds of layout
What happens to the layout depends on whether the two languages are written the same way.
The direction changes
Between left-to-right and right-to-left, the layout is mirrored: table columns swap, pictures move to the other edge and arrows turn round; the pictures themselves are never flipped. On a photo or poster, the picture stays where it is and only the text is written in the target's direction.
As in English ⇄ Persian or English ⇄ ArabicThe direction stays
Between two left-to-right languages the layout is left alone. In a PDF, a typeface of the original's kind (serif or sans) is chosen that has every letter of the target language.
As in English ⇄ Turkish, German or FrenchBetween two right-to-left languages
Arabic and Persian are both written right-to-left; the text is translated and the layout stays as it is.
As in Arabic ⇄ PersianOne engine, both directions

Persian
The software package table of a PDF catalogue: the columns of marks moved to the left, every module's description is in Persian and set right-to-left, and every mark stays in its own row.

A Persian poster on a dark background: the company name, slogan and list are now in English, the bullets moved to the left, and the photo and gold lines are untouched.

Sections of a Word catalogue with charts and screenshots: the pictures moved to the opposite edge, the headings are translated, and the result is still a Word file.

01 How does English to Persian translation work?
The text is translated into Persian by AI with each paragraph's context, figures and references are checked against the original, and the layout turns right-to-left: table columns swap and pictures move to the other edge. The file comes back in its own format.
02 Does it translate from Persian into English too?
Yes. The layout turns left-to-right, with tables and pictures moving to their places in a left-to-right document. A word left in Persian is found by the quality checks and translated again.
03 Does it translate between two languages other than English, say Turkish into Persian?
Yes. The text goes straight from the source language into the target, not through English first, and the quality checks find any English words that crept into the translation.
04 Do special letters such as ş or ß come out right?
Yes. In a PDF, a typeface is chosen that has every letter of the target language and is close to the original's; in Word and PowerPoint the text is written into the file itself.
05 I need another language; can it be added?
The list of languages is set in the admin panel; after signing in, ask for the language you need through support.
06 Which languages does it translate?
10 languages: English, Persian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Arabic and Turkish, from any of them into any other. When the writing direction changes, for example from English into Persian or Arabic, the document's layout is mirrored too.
07 Does the cost depend on the language?
The cost depends on the amount of text, the quality level and the target language, and is shown before you start; when it finishes only what was actually used is charged.
