Plugin Description

EMIANO PDF Summarizer helps you summarize a PDF assigned to a post, review and edit the generated result in the WordPress block editor, and insert the result into the post as standard WordPress blocks.

Main features:

Choose Gemini, OpenAI, or Claude as the AI provider.
Configure a model and API key separately for each provider. API keys can also be defined in wp-config.php.
Assign a PDF to each post.
Read PDFs from an ACF file field, arbitrary post meta, or the plugin’s own PDF field.
Configure summary length, writing style, and whether to generate a summary heading.
Review and edit the summary heading and body separately.
Display the summary body character count in real time.
Regenerate a summary.
Insert the result as standard paragraph and heading blocks.
If both the post title and content are empty, optionally place the generated summary heading in the post title.
Retry automatically when an AI provider reports temporary high demand.
Show progress, elapsed time, and a cancel control while generating.
Show detailed provider errors during connection tests.
Choose whether plugin data is preserved or removed on uninstall.

This plugin does not provide an AI service. You must supply your own API key for the provider you use. API charges, quotas, and terms are determined by the selected provider and your account with that provider.

Free and Premium editions

This WordPress.org package is the Free edition. All of the main features listed above are available in the block editor without a paid plugin license. The Free edition does not include the Premium Classic Editor integration or the additional prompt controls and processing. Those implementations are distributed separately with Premium.

The daily safety limits described below apply to summary requests; purchasing Premium is not required to use the Free edition.

External services

This plugin communicates with external AI services to summarize PDFs. It also includes the Freemius SDK for optional account services, purchases, license management, and paid updates.

An AI request is sent only when an authorized user explicitly runs a summary or a connection test from the WordPress admin area. During summary generation, the selected PDF content and the instructions needed to create the summary are sent to the selected AI provider. A connection test sends a small test prompt but does not send the post PDF.

The provider is selected on the plugin settings screen.

Google Gemini API

When Gemini is selected, the PDF and summary instructions are sent to the Google Gemini API.

Service: https://ai.google.dev/
Terms: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/terms
Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

OpenAI API

When OpenAI is selected, the PDF and summary instructions are sent to the OpenAI API.

Service: https://platform.openai.com/
Service Terms: https://openai.com/policies/service-terms/
Privacy Policy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/

Anthropic API

When Claude is selected, the PDF and summary instructions are sent to the Anthropic API.

Service: https://www.anthropic.com/api
Commercial Terms: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/commercial-terms
Privacy Policy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy

Before summarizing a PDF that contains confidential, personal, or otherwise sensitive information, review the terms and privacy policy of the selected provider and make sure the content is appropriate to send to that provider.

Freemius SDK

The Freemius SDK supports optional opt-in account/usage tracking for free installations, premium purchases, license activation, account management, and premium updates. Free users can choose to skip the optional opt-in. Activating a paid license communicates license and site details (such as site URL, license key, and software versions) with Freemius for verification and updates. The SDK does not send PDF contents or AI provider API keys to Freemius.

Recommended environment and limitations

EMIANO PDF Summarizer currently reads the PDF into PHP memory and sends it directly to the selected provider as base64 data. The usable PDF size therefore depends on the WordPress/PHP upload limit, the selected provider’s request limit, PHP memory_limit, and the memory already in use by WordPress. For large PDFs, make sure the PHP memory limit has sufficient headroom.

The default summary-request timeout is 50 seconds. If your web server or hosting platform has a shorter request timeout, such as an nginx fastcgi_read_timeout below 50 seconds, the server may terminate the request first.

Developers can adjust outbound provider timeouts with the emiano_request_timeout filter. For example, to use a 25-second timeout:

add_filter( 'emiano_request_timeout', function( $timeout, $provider, $context ) { return 25; }, 10, 3 );

The filter receives the current timeout, provider slug (gemini, openai, or claude), and request context (summary or connection_test). In general, set the plugin timeout lower than the hosting platform’s hard request timeout.

Daily AI summary safety limits

Both daily safety limits are unlimited (0) by default. Administrators who want to guard against accidental API spending can optionally set per-user and site-wide limits in Settings > EMIANO PDF Summarizer. Either value can be set to 0 for unlimited. No payment or plugin license is needed to change or disable the limits. Changing a limit takes effect immediately without resetting existing daily counts. Existing explicitly saved limits are preserved when upgrading.

The counter increments immediately before the first provider request for a summary operation. Regeneration counts as a new operation. Automatic retries caused by a temporary provider-busy response do not add another count for the same user action. Connection tests do not count. Administrators are subject to the same limits.

Counters reset when the date changes according to the WordPress site timezone. When a limit is reached, the editor shows the remaining count and next reset time.

Developers can change these safety limits with the emiano_usage_daily_limits filter. For example, to allow 200 summaries per user and 2,000 per site each day:

add_filter( 'emiano_usage_daily_limits', function( $limits ) { $limits['user'] = 200; $limits['site'] = 2000; return $limits; } );

Zero means unlimited, including when supplied through the filter. Invalid, non-integer, and negative filter values fall back to the configured safety limits.

Other limitations

WordPress Multisite has not been verified and is currently outside the supported environment.
Persistent object-cache environments such as Redis or Memcached have not yet been verified.
PDF processing is synchronous. Hosting-level request timeouts can end a long-running request even when the provider is still processing it.

Development source and reproducible build

The editable, maintained source for the block-editor panel is assets/js/editor.js. It is plain JavaScript using the WordPress-provided window.wp APIs; there is no separate JSX or TypeScript source or transpilation step. The file documents PDF selection, state, requests, cancellation, insertion and the extension hooks. Other plugin-authored JavaScript in assets/js/ is provided in its directly editable source form.

WordPress loads assets/js/editor.min.js, generated only from assets/js/editor.js. The adjacent assets/js/editor.min.js.map includes that source. Source files, build scripts, package.json and pnpm-lock.yaml are included in this plugin package; node_modules is not required at runtime and must not be included in the distribution ZIP.

To reproduce the runtime file from the plugin root, use Node.js 24 and pnpm 11.25.0:

Run pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts to install the locked development dependencies.
Edit assets/js/editor.js as needed. Optionally run pnpm run format.
Run pnpm run build to regenerate editor.min.js and its source map.
Run pnpm run check to check JavaScript syntax, source/runtime correspondence, the embedded source and byte-for-byte regeneration.

The build entry point is tools/build-editor.mjs. Terser 5.44.0 removes whitespace and non-license comments with compression optimizations and identifier mangling disabled. Package versions and integrity hashes are recorded in the lockfile. Do not edit the generated runtime file directly. WordPress supplies the script dependencies; this build does not bundle WordPress libraries or change the existing script handle, localized configuration or extension hooks.
