Turn PDF readings into active recall practice.
The PDF Quiz Generator helps you check whether you can retrieve ideas from a reading or slide deck without staring at the notes. It creates practice questions grounded in the readable text Digestly can extract from your PDF.
What you get
- 10 fixed multiple-choice practice questions in the public tool.
- Correct answers revealed after response so you can test yourself first.
- Explanations and page-aware citations tied to the reading instead of answer letters alone.
- Score and completion state for the current quiz session.

Use it to

Answer first, explain second, review the source third.
The value of a PDF quiz is not just the score. The real study loop is answering from memory, reading the explanation, then returning to the PDF for anything you missed.
- 01
Answer without looking
Treat each question like a retrieval attempt. Guess from memory before checking the PDF or your notes.
- 02
Read the explanation
After each response, focus on why the correct answer fits the reading and why the tempting wrong answers do not.
- 03
Track weak concepts
Write down concepts you missed, such as monetary base, reserve requirements, or demand-pull inflation, instead of memorizing answer letters.
- 04
Retake after review
Reread the relevant PDF sections, then retake or regenerate practice later so you can measure whether recall actually improved.

Generated practice is a study aid, not an official exam.
Digestly can create useful practice from readable text, but it does not know your instructor's private rubric, hidden exam emphasis, or classroom-specific hints unless those appear in the PDF.
- Readable text is required; scanned image PDFs may fail unless OCR has already made the text extractable.
- Locked or password-protected PDFs may not expose enough content to generate questions.
- Generated questions are not official exams and should be checked against your course context.
- Complex charts, equations, answer keys, and visual slide diagrams may be simplified or missed.
- A quiz can expose weak areas, but you still need to review the PDF and class materials for nuance.
Digestly creates practice from your source, not a public deck search.
