📚 Digitize Textbook Vocabulary in a Flash

For students, it's often tedious to type out vocabulary from a book. Here we show you how to capture entire pages in seconds using modern tools.

📖 Method A: Individual Lessons (Fast via Camera)

Ideal for quickly preparing new vocabulary during the week for the next homework or test.

📸 Step 1: Copy Text from the Book (OCR)

Use your smartphone's camera to capture the text:

Android: Open Google Lens, select "Text", photograph the page, and click "Copy text".
iPhone: Point the camera at the page and use the Live Text icon at the bottom right to select and copy the text.

🤖 Step 2: Let the AI Clean Up

Use our specialized prompt generator. Simply enter your copied text and the lesson name there, and you'll receive a ready-to-use command for the AI:

      🌍 Native Language as a Bridge: In our generator, you can select your language of origin (e.g., Ukrainian, Arabic, or Turkish). It then creates the appropriate command so that the AI automatically adds the translation as an additional memory aid – even if it is not in the book!
    

📚 Method B: The Entire Book at Once

Many publishers offer vocabulary lists (e.g., for other languages of origin) as free PDF downloads. Here's how to convert a complete book:

1. Convert PDF:

Download the PDF vocabulary list and convert it to an Excel file (.xlsx) using an online tool (e.g., IlovePDF).

2. Merge Data:

Copy the contents of all spreadsheets into a single sheet, one below the other.

3. Clean Up & Structure Columns:

Delete unnecessary columns. You need exactly these four column names: vocabulary_group, term_learning_language, term_user_language, and learning_status.

Details can be found in the Excel Guide.

4. Add Learning Status:

Fill the learning_status column completely with the number 1.

5. Export:

Save as CSV and use the converter.
