# Quotes - Extract quotes from PDF or Webarchive

One particularly cool way of building your quotes database is by just extracting them from PDFs or Webarchives. You can then immediately copy them to your document and use them. Obviously, the right reference will be added automatically.

Obviously, you have to add the PDF or Webarchive to your WriteFlow database first. Then select the media and view the attached text. In the Media View, you see all the media with attached texts and you can instantly click on the symbols to open them in the Optional Dataview (the horizontal split screen). In the screenshot above you see the blue button, this is the one you have to click to switch to the view of the pdf. The button to the right allows you to view all the quotes attached to this particular media.

Extract quotes from PDF or Webarchive

1. Just select the text you want to use as a quote
2. Click on the "Create Quote" button
3. This will open the "Add Quote" editor you probably already know
4. Just fill in any further information you want to add and confirm with "OK"
