# Can I insert PDF documents into ovos play?

PDF documents can be used in ovos play as cards in decks.

With the new **document template**, **PDF documents** can be displayed in learning decks. The documents are displayed as a card and can be opened in full screen in the app.

When you create a deck, you can add as many documents as you like through created learning cards. How to add a document to a deck can be found in the article How do I create a document card?

## Create document decks

If you create a new deck that contains only one document card, the appearance of the deck in the library changes. It is now displayed as a **document deck**.

When users open the deck, the document is opened directly after closing the document, the document is considered discovered and is ticked off in the library and statistics.
