Bulk PDF Uploads Using AI in EasySLR
Direct PDF Matching in EasySLR allows users to automatically match and upload multiple full-text PDFs. This streamlines the process of linking full texts with citations—saving you time and effort during the full-text screening stage. Easily match and upload full-text PDFs for screening using our smart PDF Matching feature.
Before starting, make sure you have saved all the PDFs in a local library.
How to Use Direct PDF Matching
Step 1: Go to your project and click on: Uploads > Full Text> Using AI
Step 2: Click “Upload” and select the PDFs files (max 100 per batch)
Step 3: Automatic Matching: The system will extract title from the uploaded PDFs using AI and suggest a mapping against the articles without PDF in full-text and data extraction stages.
You'll see a table showing:
- Matched references and PDF names
- Existing PDFs with option to replace
- Unmatched PDFs (if any)
- Preview matched PDFs before final upload
Step 4: Import PDFs
Click Import PDFs to complete the process. The system will add the PDFs to your articles under the Full Text and Data Extraction stage.
Things to Keep in Mind
- You can run this in multiple batches.
- Manual upload is still available for unmatched PDFs.
Q. What if a PDF doesn't get matched?
You can manually upload unmatched PDFs later via the "No PDF" section or download the unmatched list and correct filenames.
