The PDF reader is considered an internal component of Firefox, so extensions are not allowed to inject scripts into the page. If you have a translator extension that integrates with the right-click context menu and is designed to grab the selected text, that still should work.
thank you,
I was a google chrome user , but chrome eat much memory of RAM, then i switched in the firefox,
but it seems i can't use ff anymore. unfortunately non of extensions don't work via right-click options , or i cant find.

There are online translators that you can look at.
buddy , i know there is other translators , but i want to use , translator in ff when i have open PDF inside ff .
unfortunately when I'm trying to answer this issue now , the translator doesn't work on this "text field", sorry but i think there are more tiny bug or UX issue in Firefox . like these .
PDF isn't free flowing text.
