### Description of Changes

This Pull Request was automatically generated to synchronize updates to
translation files and documentation for the **V2 branch**. Below are the
details of the changes made:

#### **1. Synchronization of Translation Files**
- Updated translation files
(`frontend/public/locales/*/translation.json`) to reflect changes in the
reference file `en-GB/translation.json`.
- Ensured consistency and synchronization across all supported language
files.
- Highlighted any missing or incomplete translations.

#### **2. Update README.md**
- Generated the translation progress table in `README.md`.
- Added a summary of the current translation status for all supported
languages.
- Included up-to-date statistics on translation coverage.

#### **Why these changes are necessary**
- Keeps translation files aligned with the latest reference updates.
- Ensures the documentation reflects the current translation progress.

+Description: This script processes JSON translation files for localization checks. It compares translation files in a branch with
+a reference file to ensure consistency. The script performs two main checks:
+1. Verifies that the number of translation keys in the translation files matches the reference file.
+2. Ensures that all keys in the translation files are present in the reference file and vice versa.
+
+The script also provides functionality to update the translation files to match the reference file by adding missing keys and
+adjusting the format.
+
+Usage:
+    python check_language_json.py --reference-file <path_to_reference_file> --branch <branch_name> [--actor <actor_name>] [--files <list_of_changed_files>]

+# Adding New React Tools to Stirling PDF
+
+This guide covers how to add new PDF tools to the React frontend, either by migrating existing Thymeleaf templates or creating entirely new tools.
+
+## Overview
+
+When adding tools, follow this systematic approach using the established patterns and architecture.
+
+## 1. Create Tool Structure
+
+Create these files in the correct directories:
+```
+frontend/src/hooks/tools/[toolName]/
+  ├── use[ToolName]Parameters.ts     # Parameter definitions and validation
+  └── use[ToolName]Operation.ts      # Tool operation logic using useToolOperation
+
+frontend/src/components/tools/[toolName]/
+  └── [ToolName]Settings.tsx         # Settings UI component (if needed)
+
+frontend/src/tools/
+  └── [ToolName].tsx                 # Main tool component
+```
+
+## 2. Implementation Pattern
+
+Use `useBaseTool` for simplified hook management. This is the recommended approach for all new tools:
+
+**Parameters Hook** (`use[ToolName]Parameters.ts`):
+```typescript
+import { BaseParameters } from '../../../types/parameters';
+import { useBaseParameters, BaseParametersHook } from '../shared/useBaseParameters';
+
+export interface [ToolName]Parameters extends BaseParameters {
+  // Define your tool-specific parameters here
+  someOption: boolean;
+}
+
+export const defaultParameters: [ToolName]Parameters = {
+  someOption: false,
+};
+
+export const use[ToolName]Parameters = (): BaseParametersHook<[ToolName]Parameters> => {
+  return useBaseParameters({
+    defaultParameters,
+    endpointName: 'your-endpoint-name',
+    validateFn: (params) => true, // Add validation logic
+  });
+};
+```
+
+**Operation Hook** (`use[ToolName]Operation.ts`):
+```typescript
+import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
+import { ToolType, useToolOperation } from '../shared/useToolOperation';
+import { createStandardErrorHandler } from '../../../utils/toolErrorHandler';
+
+export const build[ToolName]FormData = (parameters: [ToolName]Parameters, file: File): FormData => {
+  const formData = new FormData();
+  formData.append('fileInput', file);
+  // Add parameters to formData
+  return formData;
+};
+
+export const [toolName]OperationConfig = {
+  toolType: ToolType.singleFile, // or ToolType.multiFile (buildFormData's file parameter will need to be updated)
+  buildFormData: build[ToolName]FormData,
+  operationType: '[toolName]',
+  endpoint: '/api/v1/category/endpoint-name',
+  filePrefix: 'processed_', // Will be overridden with translation
+  defaultParameters,
+} as const;
+
+export const use[ToolName]Operation = () => {
+  const { t } = useTranslation();
+  return useToolOperation({
+    ...[toolName]OperationConfig,
+    filePrefix: t('[toolName].filenamePrefix', 'processed') + '_',
+    getErrorMessage: createStandardErrorHandler(t('[toolName].error.failed', 'Operation failed'))
+  });
+};
+```
+
+**Main Component** (`[ToolName].tsx`):
+```typescript
+import { useTranslation } from "react-i18next";
+import { createToolFlow } from "../components/tools/shared/createToolFlow";
+import { use[ToolName]Parameters } from "../hooks/tools/[toolName]/use[ToolName]Parameters";
+import { use[ToolName]Operation } from "../hooks/tools/[toolName]/use[ToolName]Operation";
+import { useBaseTool } from "../hooks/tools/shared/useBaseTool";
+import { BaseToolProps, ToolComponent } from "../types/tool";
+
+const [ToolName] = (props: BaseToolProps) => {
+  const { t } = useTranslation();
+  const base = useBaseTool('[toolName]', use[ToolName]Parameters, use[ToolName]Operation, props);
+
+  return createToolFlow({
+    files: {
+      selectedFiles: base.selectedFiles,
+      isCollapsed: base.hasResults,
+      placeholder: t("[toolName].files.placeholder", "Select files to get started"),
+    },
+    steps: [
+      // Add settings steps if needed
+    ],
+    executeButton: {
+      text: t("[toolName].submit", "Process"),
+      isVisible: !base.hasResults,
+      loadingText: t("loading"),
+      onClick: base.handleExecute,
+      disabled: !base.params.validateParameters() || !base.hasFiles || !base.endpointEnabled,
+    },
+    review: {
+      isVisible: base.hasResults,
+      operation: base.operation,
+      title: t("[toolName].results.title", "Results"),
+      onFileClick: base.handleThumbnailClick,
+      onUndo: base.handleUndo,
+    },
+  });
+};
+
+[ToolName].tool = () => use[ToolName]Operation;
+export default [ToolName] as ToolComponent;
+```
+
+**Note**: Some existing tools (like AddPassword, Compress) use a legacy pattern with manual hook management. **Always use the Modern Pattern above for new tools** - it's cleaner, more maintainable, and includes automation support.
+
+## 3. Register Tool in System
+Update these files to register your new tool:
+
+**Tool Registry** (`frontend/src/data/useTranslatedToolRegistry.tsx`):
+1. Add imports at the top:
+```typescript
+import [ToolName] from "../tools/[ToolName]";
+import { [toolName]OperationConfig } from "../hooks/tools/[toolName]/use[ToolName]Operation";
+import [ToolName]Settings from "../components/tools/[toolName]/[ToolName]Settings";
+```
+
+2. Add tool entry in the `allTools` object:
+```typescript
+[toolName]: {
+  icon: <LocalIcon icon="your-icon-name" width="1.5rem" height="1.5rem" />,
+  name: t("home.[toolName].title", "Tool Name"),
+  component: [ToolName],
+  description: t("home.[toolName].desc", "Tool description"),
+  categoryId: ToolCategoryId.STANDARD_TOOLS, // or appropriate category
+  subcategoryId: SubcategoryId.APPROPRIATE_SUBCATEGORY,
+  maxFiles: -1, // or specific number
+  endpoints: ["endpoint-name"],
+  operationConfig: [toolName]OperationConfig,
+  settingsComponent: [ToolName]Settings, // if settings exist
+},
+```
+
+## 4. Add Tooltips (Optional but Recommended)
+Create user-friendly tooltips to help non-technical users understand your tool. **Use simple, clear language - avoid technical jargon:**
+
+**Tooltip Hook** (`frontend/src/components/tooltips/use[ToolName]Tips.ts`):
+```typescript
+import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
+import { TooltipContent } from '../../types/tips';
+
+export const use[ToolName]Tips = (): TooltipContent => {
+  const { t } = useTranslation();
+
+  return {
+    header: {
+      title: t("[toolName].tooltip.header.title", "Tool Overview")
+    },
+    tips: [
+      {
+        title: t("[toolName].tooltip.description.title", "What does this tool do?"),
+        description: t("[toolName].tooltip.description.text", "Simple explanation in everyday language that non-technical users can understand."),
+        bullets: [
+          t("[toolName].tooltip.description.bullet1", "Easy-to-understand benefit 1"),
+          t("[toolName].tooltip.description.bullet2", "Easy-to-understand benefit 2")
+        ]
+      }
+      // Add more tip sections as needed
+    ]
+  };
+};
+```
+
+**Add tooltip to your main component:**
+```typescript
+import { use[ToolName]Tips } from "../components/tooltips/use[ToolName]Tips";
+
+const [ToolName] = (props: BaseToolProps) => {
+  const tips = use[ToolName]Tips();
+  
+  // In your steps array:
+  steps: [
+    {
+      title: t("[toolName].steps.settings", "Settings"),
+      tooltip: tips, // Add this line
+      content: <[ToolName]Settings ... />
+    }
+  ]
+```
+
+## 5. Add Translations
+Update translation files. **Important: Only update `en-GB` files** - other languages are handled separately.
+
+**File to update:** `frontend/public/locales/en-GB/translation.json`
+
+**Required Translation Keys**:
+```json
+{
+  "home": {
+    "[toolName]": {
+      "title": "Tool Name",
+      "desc": "Tool description"
+    }
+  },
+  "[toolName]": {
+    "title": "Tool Name",
+    "submit": "Process",
+    "filenamePrefix": "processed",
+    "files": {
+      "placeholder": "Select files to get started"
+    },
+    "steps": {
+      "settings": "Settings"
+    },
+    "options": {
+      "title": "Tool Options",
+      "someOption": "Option Label",
+      "someOption.desc": "Option description",
+      "note": "General information about the tool."
+    },
+    "results": {
+      "title": "Results"
+    },
+    "error": {
+      "failed": "Operation failed"
+    },
+    "tooltip": {
+      "header": {
+        "title": "Tool Overview"
+      },
+      "description": {
+        "title": "What does this tool do?",
+        "text": "Simple explanation in everyday language",
+        "bullet1": "Easy-to-understand benefit 1",
+        "bullet2": "Easy-to-understand benefit 2"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Translation Notes:**
+- **Only update `en-GB/translation.json`** - other locale files are managed separately
+- Use descriptive keys that match your component's `t()` calls
+- Include tooltip translations if you created tooltip hooks
+- Add `options.*` keys if your tool has settings with descriptions
+
+**Tooltip Writing Guidelines:**
+- **Use simple, everyday language** - avoid technical terms like "converts interactive elements" 
+- **Focus on benefits** - explain what the user gains, not how it works internally
+- **Use concrete examples** - "text boxes become regular text" vs "form fields are flattened"
+- **Answer user questions** - "What does this do?", "When should I use this?", "What's this option for?"
+- **Keep descriptions concise** - 1-2 sentences maximum per section
+- **Use bullet points** for multiple benefits or features
+
+## 6. Migration from Thymeleaf
+When migrating existing Thymeleaf templates:
+
+1. **Identify Form Parameters**: Look at the original `<form>` inputs to determine parameter structure
+2. **Extract Translation Keys**: Find `#{key.name}` references and add them to JSON translations (For many tools these translations will already exist but some parts will be missing)
+3. **Map API Endpoint**: Note the `th:action` URL for the operation hook
+4. **Preserve Functionality**: Ensure all original form behaviour is replicated which is applicable to V2 react UI
+
+## 7. Testing Your Tool
+- Verify tool appears in UI with correct icon and description
+- Test with various file sizes and types
+- Confirm translations work
+- Check error handling
+- Test undo functionality
+- Verify results display correctly
+
+## Tool Development Patterns
+
+### Three Tool Patterns:
+
+**Pattern 1: Single-File Tools** (Individual processing)
+- Backend processes one file per API call
+- Set `multiFileEndpoint: false`
+- Examples: Compress, Rotate
+
+**Pattern 2: Multi-File Tools** (Batch processing)
+- Backend accepts `MultipartFile[]` arrays in single API call
+- Set `multiFileEndpoint: true`
+- Examples: Split, Merge, Overlay
+
+**Pattern 3: Complex Tools** (Custom processing)
+- Tools with complex routing logic or non-standard processing
+- Provide `customProcessor` for full control
+- Examples: Convert, OCR
