It improves the translation quality of Word documents by applying a stricter OpenXML normalization. Thanks to @jsypkens for the tip of using the correct branch of OpenXMLPowerTools.

Document Translator uses the Translator text API version (V3) with custom neural machine translation models built with the new Custom Translator (www.aka.ms/CustomTranslator). It can also use V2 of the API with a Hub customized system. Document Translator decides automatically whether your custom system was built using Custom Translator or the Translator Hub.
Microsoft Document Translator allows you to translate one or more Word, PDF, PowerPoint, plain text or Excel documents quickly and easily. Document Translator translates up to 2 million characters (roughly 650 pages) per month for free with a free subscription to the Microsoft Translator API. For higher volumes you can upgrade to a paid subscription. Documents can be translated individually or in batches, with the original formatting intact, into any of the more than 70+ languages supported by Microsoft Translator. This version is using the API V3 released in May 2018, it uses Neural Machine translation by default for all supported NMT languages (see list at www.aka.ms/TranslatorLanguages ), translates with SMT models for others, and uses custom NMT systems built with Custom Translator (www.aka.ms/CustomTranslator).
Document Translator can be run from the command line. You could integrate it in your app or web-service, for example to create a web portal on your intranet to enable file translations right from the page.
Document Translator is designed with businesses and developers in mind:
- Using the GDPR processor compliant, SOC 3 certified and “no trace” V3 of the API (see www.aka.ms/notrace)
- Use Custom Translator built customized neural machine translation models
- Customize the Document Translator’s source code for your needs, and contribute these changes back to the community if you are so inclined.
- Interactive use or command line operation for integration into batch workflows
- Runs on Windows 8 and above.
