2.1. Translate and replace the text of the PDF directly
This approach extracts detailed information from the PDF text (such as text, color, font, position, and direction), and then translates and replaces the original text in its original position to achieve the effect of translation.
Disadvantage: When the translated text is longer than the original text, the font needs to be reduced in order to fit in the original position.
If the length of the translated text is nearly the same or shorter than the original, this way can product more perfect translated document.
