Downloads a .xpi file (0.10 MB). In Zotero, open Tools → Plugins and install it from the file.
In useAn estimate of how many copies of Zotero have it: Zotero downloads each new version once for every copy that has the plugin, so we count the downloads of its most-downloaded recent release. Rounded. Plugins that update from outside GitHub count low.
15
DownloadsAll-time downloads of its release files from GitHub, counting every update. Installs from elsewhere aren't counted.
27
ReleasesVersions published on GitHub. Everyone who has the plugin downloads each one again, which adds up in Downloads.

What it does

Written by AI from the README

Runs OCR on a paper's PDF in Zotero and shows it as an editable HTML page you can correct, then translates it with an OpenAI-compatible model. Both are saved as attachments, with side-by-side PDF reading and export to HTML, Markdown, LaTeX and Excel. Windows installers for GPU and CPU OCR.

Scanned or awkwardly formatted papers are hard to read and translate. This keeps formulas and tables and saves results so they are not redone, in a Chinese-language interface.

Your rating of 论文翻译大师 v0.5.0

Your review is public, under the name you give, and published with the directory's data under CC BY 4.0. Links are removed. We never store your IP address: a scrambled code made from it is kept for 30 days to catch fake reviews. Every review is checked before it's published; how fake ones are spotted isn't published, so it can't be gamed.
