Tips to get higher-quality results

  • Clean up your PDF: Remove covers, bibliographies, and table of contents pages before uploading to ensure the AI only focuses on core content.

  • Split large files: If your PDF is over 100 pages, split it into smaller chapters for more granular and relevant quiz questions.

  • Add context: Tell the AI the specific grade level or the exact topic you are being tested on to narrow the focus.

  • Check text clarity: Ensure the text in the PDF is highlightable; if you can't select text, the AI might struggle to read it accurately.

Troubleshooting

  • Scanned PDF not reading → Use a PDF OCR tool or try to find a digital version of the document to ensure the text is machine-readable.

  • Output is too generic → Re-generate the quiz but specify the exact topics to focus on, such as Focus only on the formulas in Chapter 4.

  • Quiz is too easy → Change the settings to 'Short Answer' or 'Hard' difficulty to push your understanding beyond basic facts.

  • Too many questions → Use the range tool to limit the generation to a specific section of the document.
