📊 Elsevier & ScienceDirect Translation Comparison

Why researchers choose AcademicTranslate for ScienceDirect articles.

Feature Academic Translate What to check in any translator
Two-column layout Each page is read column by column and set back in the original design, with figures and captions beside their text Does the translated text follow the reading order, or run across both columns?
Equations Formulas are left untranslated and re-typeset as LaTeX; equation numbers stay with them Are symbols, subscripts and equation numbers unchanged?
Tables and figures Table cells are translated in place; captions stay next to their figures Do the cells line up with the original? Is each caption still beside its figure?
Model choice Several AI translation models to choose from, with the credit cost per page shown before you translate Can you choose the model, and do you see the cost before you start?

❓ Elsevier PDF Translation FAQs

Everything you need to know about translating Elsevier publications.

Yes. Just download the PDF from ScienceDirect and upload it to our interface. The translator will parse the PDF and translate it directly.
Yes. Our layout parser reads table cell coordinates directly from the PDF, so table headers and data columns stay aligned even inside Elsevier's typical two-column article layout.
Many ScienceDirect articles include a "Highlights" bullet list and a CRediT author contribution statement (e.g. Conceptualization, Methodology, Writing). These structured blocks are recognized as distinct elements and kept in their original position rather than being folded into the body paragraphs.
Yes. You can pick from several AI translation models before you translate, and the credit cost per page is shown next to the model.
