Size Limit

The upload limit per file is 10MB. The system will prompt before upload if the limit is exceeded.

Scanned or image-based PDFs have limited recognition effectiveness. If the document is a scanned version, it's recommended to use the Image OCR feature to upload images separately for better recognition results.

Usage Recommendations

  1. Ensure documents have a text layer — Pure image PDFs cannot extract text; convert them to versions with text layers
  2. Focus document content — Large documents with multiple unrelated topics work better when split and generated separately
  3. Check format compatibility — Non-standard DOC files may occasionally parse incompletely; converting to DOCX is recommended

Common Questions

QWhat if the uploaded PDF content is an image?

A

You can use the Image OCR feature to screenshot images from the PDF and upload them, or directly upload image files for recognition.

QWhat if I need to upload a document larger than 10MB?

A

You can split the document into smaller parts, upload and generate mind maps separately, then merge and organize them in the editor.
