The Old English original text and Modern English translation are on facing pages (left and right respectively). Some of the original is in Latin: some prefatory material, and the titles of the chapters. These are also translated.
The "plain text" version is OCR, with many errors: the Latin and Old English are almost unreadable. Here is one sentence of each, first as in the OCR and then as I have transcribed them from the PDF:
LATIN, p.1:
yiLLFIUCLS, Imiuilis horvuluh Clirihti, lionornhili ct ainnn-
do Arcliirpiscopo Sigcrico pcrprtiiain hot-pitalrni <»ptat in
Dotniiio.
ÆLFRICUS, humilis servulus Christi, honorabili et aman-
do Archiepiscopo Sigerico perpetuam sospitatem optat in
Domino.
OLD ENGLISH, p.2:

ne cunuon.

MODERN ENGLISH TRANSLATION (of the OE, not of the Latin), p.3:

February 21, 2012 | Edited by Mark Mandel | I added the editor/translator, hardcover, page count, pagination, and comments about the quality of the plain text OCR, especially for the original text (Old English and Latin). (First I accidentally made an "edit" with no changes.) |
