Translate & Adapt

# Image Translation That Keeps the Design Intact

Translate the text inside creatives, designs, and layouts into 75+ languages without rebuilding the file. Layers, fonts, and positioning survive — text is extracted, translated, resized to fit, and put back where it belongs.

Capabilities

## What Image Translation does

### Layer-preserving translation

Text is extracted from the live design, translated, and reinserted into the same layers — not flattened, retyped, or pasted over.

### Automatic font resizing

German runs long, Chinese runs short. Type is re-fitted to the box automatically so layouts survive the language change.

### Native design-tool plugins

Translate without leaving Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, or Figma. The plugin reads the open document and writes the localized version back.

### Zero copy-paste

No spreadsheet handoff between designers and translators, which is where character corruption and version drift usually creep in.

### Shared translation memory

Every approved string is reused across images, video, documents, and web, so the same phrase never gets two different translations.

### 25+ formats

PNG, JPG, GIF, PSD, AI, INDD, SVG, XML, JSON and more — including multi-artboard and multi-page source files.

How it works

## Four steps, one orchestrated run

Every stage runs on the same platform, so nothing is exported, re-uploaded, or handed between tools.

- 01

### Open or upload

Use the plugin inside your design tool, or upload files straight to Universe for batch runs.
- 02

### Pick languages and glossary

Choose source and target languages and the glossary the translation should follow.
- 03

### Translate in place

Text is pulled, matched against translation memory, translated where needed, resized, and written back into the design.
- 04

### Review and export

Check the visual QC report, correct anything flagged, and export a per-language file set.

Who it is for

## Teams using Image Translation

### Global campaign rollout

Take one master key visual into every market without rebuilding it per language.

### Retail and packaging

Localize shelf, POS, and packaging artwork with typography that still fits the die line.

### App and product UI

Translate Figma screens so design and engineering see real localized strings before build.

### Technical documentation

Localize diagrams, callouts, and figures inside manuals without redrawing them.

FAQ

## Questions people ask

Does image translation flatten my design?
+

No. Text is extracted from the live layers, translated, and written back into those same layers. The exported PSD or AI file stays editable exactly as the original was.

What happens when the translated text does not fit?
+

Font size and, where needed, tracking are adjusted automatically to fit the original text box, so layouts hold up in languages that expand or contract significantly.

Which design tools have plugins?
+

Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, plus Figma. Microsoft Word and PowerPoint are supported for document work, and the same engine is available over API for anything else.

How is this different from a generic AI translator?
+

A generic translator returns strings. Universe understands the design: it knows which text is a headline versus a legal line, applies your glossary and translation memory, refits typography, and runs a visual QC pass on the rendered result.
