Adding a template and questions

Overview of the step

1. Upload files. Import an image (JPG/PNG) or PDF template of the question paper.
2. AI analysis. The system automatically extracts questions, sub-questions, and suggested points.
3. Review questions. Edit each question's title, points, and grading criteria as needed; add a new question if required.
4. Continue to the next step. Move on to marking page regions.

Step 1 — Upload files

The first wizard step is to upload the question paper as an image and/or PDF. The left card is for images (JPG, JPEG, PNG; max 10 MB); the right card is for PDFs (max 100 MB).

• The image card is for a scanned or photographed copy of the paper; it is the best choice for a single page.
• The PDF card is for multi-page documents. You can fill both cards at the same time.
• Select and Continue becomes active once at least one file is uploaded and takes you to step 02.
• The vertical icons on the left are wizard shortcuts; they get green check badges as you progress.

AI question analysis

After files are uploaded, the system automatically analyzes the template and starts extracting questions. This can take a few minutes; a small 'Template analysis started' notification appears in the top right.

• Until analysis finishes, the right panel shows *"Processing questions"* and a spinner.
• If you do not want to wait, Cancel and do it manually at the bottom left stops the analysis so you can add questions by hand.
• Question boundaries become visible on the paper preview on the left after scanning; use the zoom buttons at the bottom to zoom in.

Questions and point distribution

When analysis finishes, a collapsed card appears on the right for each question. Each row shows the question title and suggested points; the total is summarized at the top.

• The points badge next to each question shows its weight. The total is calculated automatically.
• The + button in the top right adds a new question to the list; you can add one by hand if AI skipped a question.
• Clicking a question shows its grading criteria.
• Re-analyze with AI at the bottom left runs AI again if the list has issues. This can overwrite your manual edits.

Question-level criteria

Clicking a question lists the grading criteria (rubric) AI prepared for it. Each criterion has its own points and is used directly during automatic grading when you add or remove them.

• Criterion: Describes a specific answer case ("Correctly explaining the reasoning", "Blank or irrelevant answer", and similar) and sets its points.
• Multiple criteria on the same question can share the same points; they are evaluated independently — if one is not selected, another can be. For questions that need a numeric answer, typical stepped criteria include *correct answer*, *correct reasoning*, and *answer only, no reasoning*.
• Create group gathers selected criteria so that multiple-choice style cases (for example, "Which of the following is correct") allow only one selection from the group.
• Add criterion opens a new criterion row; use the three-dot menu on the right of a row to delete it. The same actions are available under every question.
• The question title, description, and total points are at the top; changing the points updates the overall total automatically.
• Short, clear criteria produce more consistent automatic grading; prefer several small criteria over one long, broad one.
