PDF Quote Card — FAQ
What kind of PDFs does this support?⌄
Any PDF with selectable/copyable text works — including PDFs exported from Word, Google Docs, Notion, Kindle (DRM-free), and most e-books. Scanned PDFs that are images of pages will not work because there is no text layer to extract.
How do I turn a book quote into a shareable image?⌄
Upload the PDF of your book using the file picker, then scroll through the extracted paragraphs and click the quote you want to share. Pick a card style that matches your aesthetic, choose the right size for your platform (square for Instagram feed, 9:16 for Stories), and download your quote card.
What sizes are available for the quote card?⌄
Square (1080×1080) for Instagram feed, Portrait (1080×1350) for Instagram portrait posts, Story (1080×1920) for Instagram / TikTok / Facebook Stories, and Wide (1200×628) for LinkedIn posts, Twitter/X cards, and Facebook link previews.
Is there a font or branding option?⌄
The card includes your chosen colour palette and a subtle "viralbolt.com" footer brand line. The typography uses system serif or sans-serif fonts depending on the chosen style. Custom font upload is not currently supported.
Are my PDFs private?⌄
Yes. PDF parsing is handled entirely by PDF.js running in your browser. Your PDF is never uploaded to any server. The text extraction, paragraph parsing, and canvas rendering all happen locally on your device.
