Use a PDF as a website reference.
Select up to 10 PDFs — a brochure, menu, report, proposal, or exported deck — and they carry through sign-in, ready for your first build. Text-based PDFs work best, and each file must be 20 MB or smaller.
Files within the size limit are stored so they survive sign-in. They are not parsed on this page, and nothing is added to your account until you build.
Before you sign in
This page checks each PDF's type and size
PDFs are validated locally and stored so they survive sign-in. Text, images, tables, and page structure are not extracted on this page.
How to use a PDF reference
Choose up to 10 PDFs, each 20 MB or smaller.
Text-based brochures, menus, reports, proposals, and decks provide clearer source material than image-only scans.
Check the file names and order.
The selector validates each file locally and keeps your order. It does not extract text, images, tables, or page structure here.
Sign in — your PDFs come with you.
Files are stored when you continue and arrive already attached to your first build, so nothing is lost at sign-in.
Add instructions and review the draft.
Explain which content and pages matter, then verify the generated copy, images, structure, and links before publishing.
Other document formats
Export slides and documents to PDF first
Lindo does not accept PPT, PPTX, DOC, or DOCX files directly. Export to PDF, then select the file above.
PowerPoint, Keynote, or Google Slides
Export or download the deck as PDF, one slide per page. Keep the slide order you want the pages or sections to follow, and re-export after any late edit.
Speaker notes, animations, transitions, and embedded video do not carry over. Convert a slide to an image instead when its layout matters more than its text.
Google Docs or Microsoft Word
Use File, then Download or Save as PDF. Apply real heading styles before exporting so the document hierarchy is visible in the output.
Comments, tracked changes, and complex tables are unreliable source material. Remove them and flatten long appendices before exporting.
What to expect
A document reference workflow with clear limits
Several PDFs per build
Add up to 10 files — for example a brochure plus a price list — and confirm each name before continuing.
Carries through sign-in
Each PDF of 20 MB or less is stored and arrives attached to your first build. Reduce anything larger before selecting it.
Text-based works best
Scanned or image-heavy PDFs provide less useful text context and usually need more written instruction.
Reference, not automatic extraction
Do not assume every word, image, table, or PDF page becomes a matching website section.
Editable draft
Use the PDFs with written instructions, then revise the generated website inside Lindo.
Review required
Check content accuracy, asset rights, navigation, responsive behavior, and accessibility before launch.
Prepare the file
A short checklist that improves the draft
- Confirm the text is selectable. Open the PDF and try to select a paragraph. If you cannot, it is effectively a set of images and you should supply the key content in writing.
- Lead with the important pages. Put the pages that describe the business, services, and offers first, and drop pages you do not want represented on the website.
- Say what each document is for. One sentence such as "this is the menu, this is the pricing sheet" is more useful than adding more files.
- Check contact and legal details. Printed documents often contain outdated hours, prices, phone numbers, and disclaimers. Verify them in the draft before publishing.
