A paper summary behind a light bulb, a button that opens the folder, and PaperDuet for Windows.

Download

Either way, keep 2 to 8 GB free for the translation model, depending on which one you choose (2.1 GB for the recommended one).

Install

If you have PaperDuet 0.2 or later, it offers this update by itself; click it and restart.

Otherwise:

Mac

  1. Open the disk image and drag PaperDuet into Applications, replacing the old version if you have one. Open it from there.
  2. The app is not notarized by Apple, so the first time macOS says it cannot check it. Open System Settings › Privacy & Security, scroll down to the message about PaperDuet, click Open Anyway and confirm.

Windows

  1. Run the installer.
  2. First time only: if Windows says “Windows protected your PC,” click More info, then Run anyway.

Your translations, notes and settings stay as they are.

What's new

  • Paper summary. Once the whole paper is translated, a light bulb appears next to the progress ring. Click it for a short summary written by the translation model, in the language of the translation: the field and subfield, the question, the method and experiments, what the results show and the conclusion. The summary is kept with the paper; Regenerate asks the model again.
  • A folder button at the top of the folder panel, next to Refresh, opens the folder in Finder (File Explorer on Windows).
  • PaperDuet for Windows. A dedicated graphics card (NVIDIA or AMD) speeds up translation; without one, PaperDuet asks before translating on the CPU.

The other files below (.app.tar.gz and latest.json) are what the in-app updater downloads; you don't need them.
