FAQ
PDF to video questions
How do I convert a PDF to video?
Upload the PDF and Saltfish’s AI reads it, writes the script, designs the scenes in your brand and records the voiceover, then you review the video and download it
How long can my PDF be?
Files up to 45 MB work, and Saltfish reads the whole document for the script while it looks closely at up to 24 pages for their layout and pictures
Will the video use the charts and images from my PDF?
Yes, the voiceover explains what your charts show and the pictures inside the PDF are offered to the scenes, apart from logos and graphics that repeat on every page
Do I need video editing skills?
No, Saltfish’s AI writes, designs and voices the video, so your part is to review it and ask for any changes
Can I change the video before it goes out?
Yes, you see the script and the storyboard before anything is made, and you can adjust any scene once the video is ready
Can I turn a PowerPoint into a video too?
Yes, a .pptx works the same way with its text, speaker notes and images read into the script, and blog posts and web pages work too
Which languages can the voiceover speak?
The voiceover speaks English, Swedish and the other major European languages, in a voice that fits your brand
What do I get at the end?
An MP4 in your brand, ready for YouTube, your help center, a landing page or a sales email
How is Saltfish different from AI avatar video tools?
Avatar tools put a presenter in front of your slides, while Saltfish designs every scene in your brand around the facts, charts and images in your document
