Text length is similar to English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When <a href=\"https:\/\/newcraft.dev\/posts\/why-your-translated-shopify-store-still-has-english-text-in-images-and-how-to-fix-it\/\">translating product images for your Shopify store<\/a>, keep these language-specific requirements in mind.
