Let's now look in detail how to use all the UPDF AI features:

Feature 1. Convert PDF to Mind Maps

UPDF AI can convert a PDF to mind maps with one simple click. A mind map provides a visual way to view the relationship between the ideas. It helps better understand content, enhance creativity, and improve content organization.

UPDF AI lets you create a mind map of the entire PDF or specific pages in your preferred language. Afterward, you can do a lot with the mind map:

• View in full screen
• Zoom in/out
• Insert in the opened PDF
• Open in the browser
• Get a shareable link
• Download as an image, markdown, or PDF file

Follow the below steps to convert PDF to mind maps with UPDF:

Step 1. Open a PDF in UPDF, activate UPDF AI from the bottom right corner, and click the "Mind Map" button located above the chat box.

Step 2. Select the mind map language and page range. Afterward, click "Go". UPDF AI will instantly create the mind map.

Step 3. Once created, you can zoom in or out of the mind map or view it on the full screen. Alternatively, you can use the browser icon to open the mind map in the browser or get a sharable link.

If you want to download the mind map, click the "Download" icon and choose whether you want to download it as an image, markdown, or PDF file.

Step 4. To add the mind map to the opened PDF, click its icon and choose between "Insert to the home page" or "Insert with PDF size".

The former will insert the mind map as the first page in the PDF but will have a customized page size depending on the mind map dimensions. The latter will insert the mind map as the first page but follow the document page size.

This way, you can easily convert PDF to mind maps with the click-based approach of UPDF AI.
