What it does
Creates an AI‑generated abstract or summary of a PDF document. The abstract can be tailored by style (academic, professional, casual), length (short, medium, long), output language, and optionally include a keyword list or a concluding section.
Inputs and limits
- Web app – Upload a PDF file (any size supported by the service).
- CLI – Place a PDF in the task’s input folder and run the plugin with a task‑id.
Web app
Upload your PDF, choose the abstract style, length, output language, and whether to include keywords or a conclusion. After processing, the generated abstract is shown as plain text that can be copied or downloaded.
Command line (CLI)
Run the Documentize.Abstracts CLI plugin with a task‑id and optional arguments for style, length, etc. The plugin reads the PDF from the input folder and writes the abstract result to the output folder.
