Happy writing and translating!
Wow, the Zoho Writer team is putting out one amazing feature after another. It is so great to see these substantial new features being added. What are the stats on the accuracy of the translations? What process if Zoho using for the translations? I would be pretty amazing to be able to add a feature whereby you turn the text into audio.
Thank you for your kind words! The accuracy of the translations varies depending on the language pair, but we're constantly working to improve it. The Read Aloud feature in Zoho Writer allows users to turn text into audio. We encourage you to give it a try (Select content > Right click > Read aloud) and let us know what you think!
Greetings, first of all, congrats for the news and keep the good work. It is common that I break my document in many sections, trying this new feature, I see that the tool only consider content from the first section, can you check? Best regards.
Thank you for your feedback! We've fixed this issue with the translation tool not processing content from all sections of a document. We're sorry for any conveniences this may have caused. If you have any further issues, please write to us at support@zohowriter.com
