To make an Anki deck from a PDF, upload the page (or a photo of it) on PaperApp: the AI pulls the vocabulary into clean front/back pairs and gives you a file Anki imports directly — no manual card-making.
It works for any language, so a Spanish, French, or Japanese page all become study-ready decks the same way.

Capture the page

What you’ll learn
- Anki cards from your own material
- Clean term ↔ meaning pairs, no clutter
- Any language
- A file Anki imports natively — no plugins
Skip the manual card-making
Building Anki decks by hand is the slowest part of using Anki. PaperApp does the extraction for you: point it at a page and it returns clean, import-ready cards, so you spend your time reviewing instead of typing.
The export is a tab-separated file Anki reads on import — no add-ons or formatting required.
