Translate the live text in Photoshop & Illustrator.

A desktop plugin reads the editable text layers in your .psd and .ai files, translates them via your Rush account and writes the translations back in place — layout, fonts and positioning intact. The plugin only sends the strings, so your file never leaves your machine.

3 layers rewritten

Your artwork, in every language — layout intact.

The plugin runs inside Photoshop or Illustrator, translating the live text and writing it back directly into the document.

Live text layers

It reads editable text layers and translates them — not a flattened export.

Layout intact

Fonts, styles and positioning stay exactly where you put them.

One key, both apps

A single plugin key works in Photoshop and Illustrator.

Powered by your Rush account

Brand voice, glossary and AI quality apply — metered as AI words.

In place, not exported

Translates the layers, keeps the layout.

The plugin translates the editable text in your open document and writes each result straight back into its own layer — fonts, sizes and positions preserved. Rasterized or outlined text cannot be edited, so the plugin flags it and leaves it intact instead of guessing.

Editable text only

Live text layers are translated where they are, in the same layer.

Styles & position kept

Fonts, colors and placement are preserved exactly.

Flags rasterized text

Outlined or rasterized text is flagged and skipped — never mangled.

One plugin, both apps

Photoshop and Illustrator, one key.

The same plugin key works in Photoshop and Illustrator, installed via Adobe's UXP plugin runtime. Access is included on the Growth plan and above, and the plugin authenticates by key — so it never takes up one of your connector slots.

One API key

Generate it once in Rush and use it in both apps.

How it works

Set up in about five minutes.

Generate an API key

On the Photoshop & Illustrator connector in Rush → Sources, generate a plugin key. Available on the Growth plan and above.

Download & install the plugin

Download the Photoshop or Illustrator plugin and load it with Adobe's UXP tooling. (The plugin package is rolling out in beta.)

Paste your key & translate

Open the panel, paste the key, choose your languages and translate the open document in place.

Permissions & security

Your file never leaves your machine.

The plugin does the work on the file locally and only sends the strings to translate. Here is exactly what that means.

What we access

The text strings. The plugin only sends the extracted strings to your Rush account for translation — nothing else.

Your Rush account. To translate with brand voice and glossary, metered against your AI-word quota.

Your plan entitlement. A quick check that your plan (Growth and above) includes the plugin.

What we never do

See your file. Your .psd or .ai never leaves your machine — the server handles no files.

Call Adobe for you. The plugin runs inside your app; we make no calls to the Adobe API on your behalf.

Store your artwork. We handle strings, not images — nothing of your design is stored.

The details

How the plugin behaves.

The specifics teams ask about before rolling it out to designers.

Authentication

A plugin API key you generate in Rush (Growth plan and above), pasted into the panel. No OAuth.

What it translates

Live, editable text layers. Rasterized or outlined text is flagged and skipped — it cannot be edited.

Where translation happens

In your Rush account — brand voice, glossary and AI quality apply, metered as AI words.

File handling

The plugin only sends the strings. Your .psd/.ai never leaves your machine and we make no calls to the Adobe API.

Apps

One key works in Photoshop and Illustrator, via Adobe's UXP plugin runtime.

Availability

The translation backend is available today. The plugin package itself is rolling out in beta — join early access to get it.

Questions

Photoshop & Illustrator, in plain terms.

Does my file leave my computer?

No. The plugin only sends the text strings to translate; your .psd or .ai stays on your machine, and we make no calls to the Adobe API.

Is the plugin available now?

The translation backend and API keys work today. The plugin package itself is rolling out in beta — join early access and we will get it to you as soon as it ships.

What text can it translate?

Live, editable text layers. Rasterized or outlined text cannot be edited, so it is flagged and left intact.

Does it keep my layout?

Yes. Translations are written back into the same text layers with fonts, styles and positioning preserved.

One key for both apps?

Yes — a single plugin key works in Photoshop and Illustrator, via Adobe's UXP plugin runtime.

Which plan do I need?

The plugin is available on the Growth plan and above. It authenticates by key, so it never uses one of your connector slots.
