Hi Team, We are testing the translation capability provided by the Document Translation in Language Studio. We have a couple of queries about this: We are trying to prevent certain sections or paragraphs within our Word and PDF files from being translated. Could you please advise if is there any way in which a specific section or paragraph can be prevented from being translated? Can we have a workaround where we can pair both words source/translated words for a given word (to make it helpful in understanding) in the translated document? for eg: source word: Udfyld translated word: Please The same word in the translated document (should appear as): Udfyld/Please Regards, Mohit

Hi @Ramr-msft

I just wanted to follow up on point 1 above - is there any update for preventing some specific section or paragraph in Word documents from being translated?

Also, can you advise if there are any other tools available that prevent the translation of some text in a document? Asking about it because need to avoid building a customized code-based solution, when most of the features are already available.

Regards,

Mohit
