I use third-party apps that integrate with ChatGPT and support PDF uploads, but that's outside official OpenAI tools.
It would be great if ChatGPT could handle PDFs natively, especially for longer documents and reports.
You might want to try specialized tools that can convert PDFs to text or JSON, then feed that into ChatGPT.
As of now, ChatGPT doesn't support direct PDF uploads. However, you can copy and paste text from PDFs into the chat for processing.
