How to Organize PDF Extractions as Projects on iPhone
PDFExtract organizes documents as projects you can revisit later, keeping the original PDF, extracted images, and Markdown results together — so ongoing work like a research review stays in one place.
Steps
- Import and extract from a PDF in PDFExtract.
- It’s kept as a project with the original, images, and Markdown.
- Revisit the project later to re-preview or re-export.
- Keep a project per document to stay organized.
Why it works this way
Extraction is rarely one-and-done — you come back to re-export, grab another figure, or continue a review. Treating each document as a project keeps the source PDF and everything you pulled from it together, so a multi-document task like a literature review stays organized instead of scattered across your Files app.
Tips & edge cases
- One project per paper or report keeps reviews tidy.
- Revisit to re-export without re-importing.
- Everything stays local to your device.
