Visual generation
To generate visuals from your text, simply paste the text into your document. Then, hover over the block of text, and click the blue Generate Visual button that appears on the left side.
You can also generate a visual from a specific section of your document by selecting the text and clicking the blue Generate Visual button.
Exporting to PDF, PNG or SVG
After creating a new document and generating visuals, you may want to export your work for use in other software like PowerPoint or Word.
Here are your export options:
1- Exporting the Entire Document as a PDF
You can export the entire document as a PDF file by clicking the 'Share' button in the top-right corner and selecting 'Download PDF'. You'll then have the option to choose between two export formats:
Single continuous page: This option creates one long page without breaks, ideal for maintaining consistency between text and visuals.
A4 page: Perfect for printing, this option formats the document into A4-sized pages.
2- Exporting a Visual as PNG, SVG, or PDF
To export a specific visual, click on the visual to reveal a purple button.
This opens a preview modal where you can choose to export the visual as a PNG, SVG, or PDF. You'll also have a few additional options, such as color settings.
