#Is it possible to automatically split a PDF file into chapters when uploading to a project?

I have audio recording scripts in Word format that I've exported to PDF. Each script contains 20-30 different tracks, which will each be a separate chapter in a Project. Is it possible to indicate in the PDF where chapter breaks should be so I don't have to manually create chapters in Projects? When I uploaded the file, Projects split it into two chapters automatically, but I can't work out what might have triggered the split.
Thanks for any help.

The Projects feature in ElevenLabs allows you to upload a full book or document in formats such as EPUB, PDF, or TXT. However, the system's ability to automatically split the document into chapters depends on the structure and formatting of the document. If the document is well-structured and correctly formatted, it should automatically split each chapter into its own chapter in Projects, making it easy to navigate.

However, the system does its best approximation if the file is not properly structured. It will split the chapters automatically if they become too long. There's no explicit mention in the provided content about indicating chapter breaks in the PDF before uploading, so it's unclear if this is possible.

If the automatic splitting doesn't work as expected, you may need to manually adjust the chapters in Projects after uploading the document. You can add more chapters by clicking the plus sign in the chapters section.

Remember to double-check that all paragraphs have the intended voice and settings after pasting or making changes. If you make any changes, you will need to press convert once again for the changes to be reflected in the whole book, so you can download the entire chapter.
