PDFgear will give you a summary of the paper and suggest a few sample questions.
This is a very useful summary of my paper.
Simply start asking questions.
PDFgear works with research papers where you have text scanned as an image.

You can extract quotes from a research paper.
Click on the "Extract Text" button in the toolbar and select the quote you want to extract.
This feature works even if the text is scanned as a image.
Simply copy and paste the quote in your Word file.
If you are reading lengthy papers, you can choose "Night Mode" to make it easy on your eyes.
Adobe's Acrobat Reader also offers a dark mode but it only darkens the user interface and not the PDF itself.
