How to use Chat with PDF

Upload one or more PDFs and ask about methods, samples, limitations or results. Text is extracted in your browser and answered against the document itself.

Before you start

• • One or more PDFs on your device

Steps

1. 1

   Open Chat with PDF

   Sidebar → Chat with PDF.

2. 2

   Upload your documents

   Drop in one or several PDFs. Text is extracted before any question is answered.

3. 3

   Ask a focused question

   Methods, sample size, limitations and statistical tests give the best answers because they are stated explicitly in the text.

4. 4

   Follow the quoted passages

   Answers point back at the extracted text — read the passage before quoting it in your own work.

Tips

• • Scanned PDFs need OCR first — run them through Document Extraction & OCR.
