i have a Japanese book about model making, tried various ways on the net to get it translated to english--so far no success. can anybody suggest me a way out?=pravin

If you are talking about the digital version of the book... then you can use Google Translator.

Or simply try to search for the English version of the book. Should be available.

Google Translate is a good option.

japanese is one of the toughest language to interpret.even if a software manages to provide a rough translation/basic outline consider it your good luck.

yeah Bro you can use google translate it supports almost all languages.

If it's a hard copy, it's best to find a translator or even better find a English alternative to the book.

Else if yours is a digital copy, use Google Translate.

Scan the book, Use Abbyy Reader or some other equivalent good OCR, to make it into text, use google translate to english
Voila done!

I was wrong above; I wonder how they translate PDFs too!

Google Translate
