They can't use Google because it's a bunch of official documents. Official documents must have official (certified) translations, which can only be done by a certified translator (covering certain requirements) working at a licensed translation agency. The logic behind this is that the document is important, so the translation has to be as accurate and as reliable as possible. Google Translate simply won't do.

Converting saves time because it's a scanned PDF - you can't copy-paste stuff directly from it (it's like an image). When I convert, I also perform OCR, which turns the numbers on the image into real text, which can be copy-pasted. However, some PDF are scanned with lower quality and the OCR doesn't always work properly. Pity.

Heh, I know exactly what you mean. For a computer geek, the sun is nothing more than "that annoying glare in the monitor".

Many years ago, I guess I was still in elementary school, there was one stormy day when the clouds moved super fast on the sky. The same speed as Quake's sky. It was awesome to watch.
