Printable pub quiz sheets built from your own material

Most free pub quiz sheets you find online are generic, so the questions rarely match what your group already knows or wants to learn. A sheet made from your own notes keeps the difficulty and topics where you want them.

  • Questions match the topics in your own notes or slides
  • Multiple choice, true/false and short answer formats
  • Explanations make it easier to settle disputed answers
  • Plus exports to PDF for printing; Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML
Example general knowledge trivia questions with answers
What is the capital of Australia?Canberra. It was purpose-built as a compromise between Sydney and Melbourne, which were rivals for the role.
Which element has the chemical symbol Na?Sodium. The symbol comes from its Latin name, natrium, which is why it does not match the English word.
How many bones are in the typical adult human body?206. Babies have more, because many bones fuse together as the body grows.
Who wrote the novel Frankenstein?Mary Shelley. The first edition in 1818 was published anonymously, which often causes this question to be missed.
Which river is traditionally considered the longest in Africa?The Nile. It flows north through Egypt to the Mediterranean, making it the usual answer in trivia rounds.

Questions from your material

Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages. The questions come from what you actually uploaded.

Answers and explanations

Each question includes the correct answer and a short explanation, so the host can check answers quickly at the end of a round.

Exports for paper rounds

Plus exports to PDF and DOCX, so you can print a sheet. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning platforms.

How it works

Upload your trivia source

Add a PDF, slides, a document, or a photo of a fact sheet. Text in photos is read with text recognition.

Choose a question type

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the set.

Review and export

Check the questions and explanations, then study them in the browser or export a PDF on Plus.

DeckOwl reads your source and writes questions with answers and short explanations. You can use the same material for a quiz night, a classroom warm-up or a study session before a real exam.

If you only need one sheet, the free plan lets you generate and study in the browser. Printing needs a PDF export, which is part of Plus.

Frequently asked questions

How do I write good general knowledge trivia questions?

Keep each question to one clear fact, make the wrong options plausible, and check the answer against a reliable source. Avoid questions that depend on wording tricks.

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Six to ten questions per round is a common format because it is quick to mark and keeps teams engaged. Adjust the count to suit how long your session should run.
