How to Translate a Web Page

Use Google Translate within Page Vault to capture translated web pages.

Page Vault does not currently offer automatic translation of web pages. However, you can translate and capture a translated version of a webpage by using Google Translate within the Page Vault Browser. Follow these steps:

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Open Google Translate:

    • In the Page Vault Browser, go to: translate.google.com

    • Important: Do not use the general Google Translate search result or URL (e.g., google.com/search?q=google+translate), as it may not function properly.

  2. Set Your Translation Languages:

    • Use the down arrows at the top of the two text boxes to set the original and target languages.

  3. Enter the URL to Translate:

    • Paste the URL of the page you want to capture into the left-hand text box.

  4. Access the Translated Page:

    • Click the link that appears in the right-hand box. This will open the translated page in a new tab within the Page Vault Browser.

    • A Google Translate bar will appear at the top of the new tab, and the content will begin translating. This may take longer for pages with more content.

  5. Capture the Translated Page:

    • Once the page has fully loaded, click the Capture button in the Browser.

    • Alternatively, if you're using the Batch tool, paste the translated URL into the "Web Page" section.

      • Important: If using Batch, be sure to copy your cookies from the Page Vault Browser into the "Cookies" section of the Batch tool.

      • For guidance, see the help article: How to Copy Cookies from the Browser.

By using Google Translate this way, you can successfully translate and capture web pages directly in Page Vault.
