Compare with the document

Read each branch against the original passage and ask to correct omissions or assumptions.

Make a written procedure visible

Converting PDF content to a flowchart means interpreting process logic within the text. A useful result preserves what starts the process, what happens next, and which conditions change the path.

Review instructions with branching logic

Use it for onboarding guides, approval procedures, or manuals whose sequence is buried in paragraphs. The example shows user onboarding with an email-verification decision and a resend path.

Preserve the source's meaning

  1. Select one coherent process. Unrelated sections can produce a misleading combined workflow.
  2. Retain explicit conditions. Keep thresholds, role names, and exceptions as written.
  3. Distinguish actions from decisions. An instruction and a question should not look identical.
  4. Flag missing transitions. Ask for clarification markers where the document leaves the next step unclear.
  5. Check against the original. A readable flowchart can still omit an important sentence.

Work from copied process text

MyMap turns the passage you paste into a visual workflow. You can ask for shorter step labels or clearer branch wording while retaining the document's actual requirements.

Common questions

Do I have to upload the PDF?

You can copy the relevant text into the prompt. Preserve headings and step numbers so the source structure is easier to interpret.

What if the PDF is a scan?

Use text you have transcribed or extracted with a text-recognition tool, then check it against the scan before requesting the flowchart.

Will every PDF produce a useful flowchart?

A flowchart suits sequences and decisions. A report organized around themes may work better as a summary or mind map.
