Translate Screenshots for Product Support and Tutorials

Screenshots are often the fastest way to explain a workflow, but source-language annotations and callouts can make support content hard to follow for a new audience. Translating the visual lets the instruction and the interface context stay together.

Choose the right text to translate

Translate explanatory headings, arrows, captions, and callouts that are part of the tutorial graphic. Keep product names, trademarks, and any UI text unchanged when changing them would make the screenshot inaccurate.

If a screen contains ordinary non-brand content that should be localized, enable the option for text on objects or screens, then review the output carefully.

A review-first checklist

1. Confirm the target language matches the article or help-center locale.
2. Check that arrows and callouts still point to the right interface element.
3. Check terminology against the localized product interface.
4. Verify small text and labels at their intended display size.
5. Export the reviewed image as PNG.

Use Translate Image for localized screenshots. For an accompanying walkthrough with narration, create a matching translated video with subtitles and localized audio.
