PDF to Video is a tool that converts the text of a PDF into a short narrated video. Upload a PDF up to 15 MB and the tool extracts its text, then the AI writes a 30, 45 or 60 second narration from the strongest points, keeping only facts the document states, draws an image for each scene of about four seconds, and reads it in one of 22 AI voices with word captions and music. The PDF needs selectable text: scans without a text layer won't work.
Sign in, set "Start from" to A PDF and add a text-based PDF up to 15 MB.
Choose a visual style, 30, 45 or 60 seconds, vertical or landscape, moving stills or AI clips, a voice, captions and music.
Press Create video. The price is on the button, and the MP4 is saved in My Videos.
All pages' text is extracted and joined in reading order. Layout, images and charts in the PDF are not used; the video's pictures are drawn new for each scene.
A 20-page report becomes about 72 spoken words at 30 seconds or about 144 at 60. The AI opens with the most surprising point and ends on a closing line.
The AI is told to keep the facts the PDF states and not to invent facts, quotes or numbers. Read the narration before you share it, as with any summary.
Documentary and Cinematic styles give realistic scenes for reports and guides; 3D animation or Anime make study notes and kids' topics friendlier.
If the PDF is online, choose "A link" and paste its public address; a link that serves a PDF is read the same way as an upload.
Turning an article into a video usually means writing a script from it, finding visuals, recording a voiceover and timing captions. Here you paste the article.
