Hello Мирослав,

as qpdfview uses the Qt framework for its UI, you cannot use mo files directly. You need to convert them into Qt's ts format first using the lconvert tool and into the binary qm format using the lrelease program.

If you want to locally test this, qpdfview's translations are usually installed at

/usr/share/qpdfview/qpdfview_<lang>.qm

but it will also look for translations put right next to the binary first.

Best regards,
Adam

P.S.: You can also directly edit the TS files using Qt's Linguist application.

Can you help with this problem?
