Length and layout
Persian is roughly the same length, sometimes a little longer than the English original. The captions switch from left to right to right to left; the editor and the burned-in export both lay Persian out in its own direction.

Translate English video into Persian subtitles
Upload a video in English. SubFlow transcribes the speech, translates every caption into Persian, and keeps both languages on the same timeline so you can review them side by side — then export subtitles, a subtitled video, or a Persian dub.

Getting Persian right
Persian needs the zero-width non-joiner (نیمفاصله) in words like «میشود»; a translation that drops it looks careless to a native reader, so check it in the editor.
Workflow
From English to Persian in three steps.
Upload the English video
Add a video or audio file. SubFlow transcribes the English speech into timed captions.
Translate into Persian
Pick Persian as the target. Every caption is translated with the surrounding lines as context, then shown beside the original.
Review and export
Fix names and terms, split any caption that runs long, then export Persian or bilingual subtitles, a subtitled video, or a Persian dub.
Common questions
English to Persian, answered.
Can SubFlow recognise English speech automatically?
Yes. Leave the source on automatic detection or pick English yourself. Accents, fast speech and overlapping speakers are handled well by the Whisper model; background music is the most common cause of a dropped line.
Will the Persian subtitles fit on screen?
Persian reads comfortably at about 15 characters per second with about 42 characters per line. Persian is roughly the same length, sometimes a little longer than the English original. Review the longest captions and split any that crowd two lines.
Can I dub a English video into Persian?
Yes, on the Pro plan. The Persian dub uses a fa-IR voice and is spoken from the translated subtitles, so correcting a line in the editor changes what the voice says.
Can I export English and Persian together?
Yes. Export the Persian subtitles alone, the original English, or a bilingual SRT with both on each caption — or burn either into the video.
