What's the best way to structure my brand guideline PDF for optimal extraction? Should I: - Use clear section headings? - Include color swatches? - Provide font samples? - Include logo variations? Any tips for making sure everything gets extracted correctly?

Great question! Here are some best practices for structuring your brand guideline PDF:

1. Use Clear Section Headings

Use consistent heading styles
Make sections easy to identify
Examples: "Brand Colors", "Typography", "Logo Usage"

2. Include Visual Examples

Color swatches with hex codes
Font samples showing different weights
Logo variations (horizontal, vertical, icon-only)
Spacing examples with measurements

3. Provide Context

Explain when to use each element
Include do's and don'ts
Show correct and incorrect examples

4. Organize Logically

Start with brand overview
Then colors and typography
Follow with logo and imagery
End with spacing and layout

5. Make It Scannable

Use bullet points
Include tables for specifications
Add clear labels and captions

Following these practices will help the AI extraction capture everything accurately!
