Abstract
A method for translating selected content in a web conference may include receiving, by a processing device, a selected area in an image from a shared application in a web conference. The selected area may contain text for translation into a chosen language. The method may also include performing an optical character recognition process on the text in the selected area of the image to provide OCR resulting text. The method may additionally include translating the OCR resulting text into the chosen language. The method may further include presenting the translated OCR resulting text in the chosen language to at least a translation requester in the web conference.
