Language Detection is a local Docker action that automatically detects the language of a PDF or text file and writes the language code directly into the PDF’s document metadata, or exports it to a TXT file. It uses the open-source LangDetect library together with the PDFix SDK. Setting a valid document language is also a PDF/UA requirement (ISO 14289-1, Clause 7.2-2).
