# Translating a Document on Jurisphere

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### **Select documents for translation**

[Upload the file(s)](/file-upload-and-management/your-files-and-documents/uploading-files-and-folders.md) that you want to use, and select them from the [Folder pane](/file-upload-and-management/your-files-and-documents/uploading-files-and-folders.md#open-your-folders-pane) on the left.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
You can **see the selected document(s)** on the main pane on the right, in the "<mark style="color:green;">Ready for Analysis</mark>" area.

You can select multiple files for translation.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure your selected document is OCR'ed before translating it. [Learn how](/file-upload-and-management/your-files-and-documents.md#ocr) :arrow\_left:
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### **Select page range**

Below the file description, you may select particular page ranges within your selected document(s) in the expandable selector titled "**Select page ranges for selected documents**".\
\
\&#xNAN;*Note: This step is optional. By default, the entire document will be submitted for translation.*
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Choose the target language

1. After selecting the required document(s) and page(s), you can choose between [14 different target languages](/translation/overview-of-the-translation-tool.md#output-languages).
2. Jurisphere automatically recognizes the original language i.e., the language of your uploaded document.
3. Click on the <mark style="background-color:blue;">drop down menu in blue</mark> and select the desired output language.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Submit file(s) for translation

1. Review your selection to ensure that the right document(s), page range, and target language is selected.
2. Click on the blue icon marked as ‘<mark style="color:blue;">Translate to</mark> <mark style="color:blue;"></mark>*<mark style="color:blue;">(name of language).</mark>*’
   {% endstep %}
   {% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Translation is a background process.**

This means that you can exit the Translation tool while your document is being translated. You may navigate to another webpage or close the window entirely. A notification will pop up on the top right hand corner once this translation is completed.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.jurisphere.ai/translation/translating-a-document-on-jurisphere.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
