Microsoft has launched Bing Translator for Windows 8 with offline translation support – a Modern UI application that supports over 40 languages for translation. Although this application can be used on a desktop computer without any problem, portable devices (Windows RT devices) are the major beneficiaries of its features.

A most outstanding feature of Bing Translator for Windows 8 is its ability to access the camera device, which we can use to translate signs boards, menus, newspapers, or any printed text in an instant. This feature is useful, especially when travelling in foreign countries.
