Frequently Asked Questions

Common queries regarding file processing and quiz output.

How does the AI generate questions from my uploaded PDF?

The AI uses advanced semantic analysis and natural language processing (NLP) to understand the context, hierarchy, and key relationships within your document. It then formulates questions that test for comprehension and application of those specific concepts rather than just keyword matching.

What file types are supported for document upload?

We support comprehensive intake, including PDF documents, Microsoft Word (.docx), PowerPoint presentations (.pptx), and various image formats (like JPG or PNG of textbook pages). You can also use a direct text prompt for quick generation.

Can I export the generated quiz for offline use or my Learning Management System (LMS)?

Absolutely. Our tool provides robust export options, including standard PDF and Word (.docx) files for printing, as well as specialized formats like QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML, ensuring seamless integration with major e-learning platforms.

Is it free to try using the AI PDF question generator?

Yes, the tool offers a generous free tier allowing you to test the power of document conversion immediately. Access to our advanced AI model and higher generation limits requires upgrading to a paid subscription plan.
