translate a pdf file from german to english

[Orna Agmon Ben-Yehuda]

Hi Sara,
I did not understand where the bigger problem lies - in reading or writing.
Reading - Sometimes you can grab the text from a pdf (then maybe put in in
google translate). This does not work with old PDFs. You would need an OCR
program for that.
Writing - Using close source (acrobat writer, costs money), you can change a
pdf WYSIWUG. (supposing you got drawings and you want to write around them).
I am not aware of a FOSS solution.
