Reading PDFs with Apple Intelligence
Turn statements, invoices and dividend notices into transactions.
Book ▸ Smart Import PDFs… (⇧⌘I) reads bank statements, dividend statements and invoices on this device and turns them into transactions for you to review. Nothing is sent anywhere.
What it does
- Reads the rows out of the document, including scanned pages.
- Matches each one to a transaction already in your book, in any account.
- Links the PDF to that transaction, and suggests a category.
Match Attachments… (⇧⌘M) does the same for receipts you already have — PDFs or photos: pick the files, and each is paired with its transaction and filed.
Receipts from a trip match too. A card charged overseas posts in your own currency, so nothing on the receipt looks like the amount in your book — but the card issuer writes the original into the transaction, and that figure is matched exactly. No exchange rate, nothing to set up.
