Just for the records. I tested DeepL a while with some parts of dt manual from English to Italian. Results are overall good. Also rather complex sentences are translated quite well. This engine seems to be more precise than other translation engines. This does not means it is OK for a complete automated translation. Thank you Matthias for this interesting information.
