Question 1

How do I translate a DXF or DWG drawing into another language without breaking the dimensions?

Accepted Answer

With CADlingua: upload the DXF or DWG drawing and get it back translated in the same format. It translates only the descriptive text and leaves dimensions, tolerances, symbols (Ø, °, ±) and part codes intact.

Question 2

Which drawing formats does CADlingua accept?

Accepted Answer

DXF and DWG. You upload the file and download it translated in the same format, with identical geometry.

Question 3

Does CADlingua translate into non-Latin languages like Cyrillic, Chinese or Arabic?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It supports any language, including Cyrillic, Chinese/Japanese/Korean (CJK), Greek and Arabic.

Question 4

Can I use my company glossary and terminology?

Accepted Answer

Yes. CADlingua is configured per company: your own glossary, the proper nouns you want preserved, and the grammar of your part codes.

Question 5

Why does a normal translator (Google, DeepL) not work for a technical drawing?

Accepted Answer

A generic translator treats the drawing as flat text and wrecks dimensions like Ø50 or R5, tolerances and codes. CADlingua understands the drawing structure and rewrites only the prose, keeping the geometry exact.
