PDF Drag-and-Drop Import

Drop a PDF onto your workspace to extract its metadata automatically


Drag a PDF directly onto the BibForge workspace and let it extract the metadata. BibForge reads the PDF, identifies the paper via DOI or title matching, and fetches structured metadata.

01

Drag your PDF onto the workspace

With your workspace open, drag a PDF file from your file browser and drop it anywhere on the workspace. A drop target will appear when you hover.

02

BibForge extracts metadata

BibForge reads the PDF and attempts to extract a DOI or identify the paper by title. It then retrieves the full structured metadata.

03

Entry is saved

The new reference is then added to your workspace just like any other reference.
