The Power of "Buckets"
Turning a messy "Semester Review" into organized topic sets.
I always found it frustrating when I had a single 200-page PDF but only wanted three specific chapters. Most tools make you extract page 1-20, save, extract 21-40, save... it's a chore.
With Parse & Pack, we use a concept called Categorization Buckets. You tell us what the buckets are, and we throw the pages into the right ones as we read them.
How to Define Your Buckets
Defining categories is as simple as making a list. The tool looks for these names in your prompt and builds a separate PDF for each.
Academic Workflow
"Categorize these questions into: 'Kinematics', 'Dynamics', and 'Energy'."
Professional Workflow
"Split this contract into 'Legal Terms', 'Project Scope', and 'Pricing Tables'."
Why Multi-Output Matters
It's all about focus. By separating a massive document into smaller, topic-specific files, you reduce cognitive load. You can share exactly what's needed with a client or student without the extra fluff.
Plus, if you upload multiple files, the tool merges matching pages from all of them into your unified categories. It's a many-to-many relationship that actually works.
Important Note on Browser Blocks
Most browsers (like Chrome or Safari) will block multiple automatic downloads for security. When you see a prompt asking to "Allow multiple downloads for this site," make sure to click Allow so you don't miss any of your files.
Bucketing FAQ
Can one page belong to two buckets?
The classifier usually assigns a page to the best fit. If you want it in both, you can specify: "If a page matches both X and Y, include it in both."
How are the files named?
The generated PDFs will be named after the categories you defined. If you ask for a "Trigonometry" category, you'll get a `trigonometry.pdf`.
