Lessons
PDF / PowerPoint Import
What does this do?
Imports a PDF or PowerPoint file and converts each page or slide into a draft lesson slide using AI detection and OCR. Supports files up to 50 MB and up to 40 pages.
When should I use it?
Use this when you have an existing presentation or printed resource you want to turn into an interactive Classfolio lesson without rebuilding from scratch.
How do I use it?
- 1Drag or upload a PDF or PPTX file (up to 50 MB)
- 2The system parses, renders, and OCRs each page automatically
- 3Each page is saved as a draft slide with a detected slide type
- 4You're redirected to Import Review to check and improve the draft
Common mistakes
- Files over 50 MB will be rejected — compress your PDF first
- Files with more than 40 pages will trigger a warning — consider splitting the file
- Scanned images with low contrast OCR poorly — AI detection may miss content
