helloworld.pdf

a PDFDetails dialog opens which, after an initial loading time (which might take a couple seconds because the server needs to convert the pdf), lets you choose individual page(s) to turn into separate cards

the cards are created as a stack of image cards like this that you can then move around and resize wherever you want

open pdf card, and click on some kind of ‘show pages’ button

not pre-rendering would speed up initial page selection, but would probably slow down card creation which is a more delicate operation. so pre-rendering is probably better

when generating pages, save them to s3 (with a pdf file scope or naming scheme) so they can be retrieved without being regenerated

background image is created with all pages stitched together

downside: not a discoverable feature

downside: huge background file size

upload pdf

advantage: you don’t have to organize pages yourself
