Common questions
What types of PDFs work best?
Text-based PDFs with clear structure work best: reports, whitepapers, research papers, case studies, and slide decks. Scanned images may not extract well.
Can I choose which points become slides?
Yes. Highlightly extracts all available content, and you review and select which points to include in the carousel.
Does it preserve page context?
Yes. Every extracted element carries page number and section context so you can trace it back to the source.
