Extract text content from a PDF file. Returns first 10 pages by default to avoid exceeding LLM context limits. Use the 'pages' parameter for specific pages.

Get metadata from a PDF file including title, author, subject, page count, creation/modification dates, and producer information.

List all form fields in a PDF with their names, types, current values, and required status. Returns hasForm: false for PDFs without forms.

Convert a PDF to clean, reading-order Markdown for LLM consumption: reconstructs up to 2 content columns (plus full-width title/footer bands), infers headings from font size, and detects bullet/numbered lists. Pages with 3 or more columns fall back to single-column reading order. Tables are emitted as plain reading-order text, NOT reconstructed as Markdown tables. Best on clean, digital (text-based) PDFs; degrades on scanned/image-only PDFs (use pdf_render_pages for those) and very complex layouts. Returns the first 10 pages by default.

Search text across a PDF and return matches with a short surrounding snippet and the page number. The query is matched as a literal substring (case-insensitive by default). Searches all pages unless a range is given.

Merge multiple PDF files into one. AcroForm fields are preserved; fields whose names collide across inputs are auto-renamed (namespaced by source). Set flatten:true to bake field values into static content.

Extract specific pages from a PDF into a new file. AcroForm fields on the extracted pages are preserved; fields on omitted pages are dropped. Set flatten:true to bake field values into static content.

Rotate pages in a PDF by 90, 180, or 270 degrees. Rotation is additive to any existing rotation. Rotates all pages if no page range is specified.

Encrypt a PDF with AES-256 password protection. Requires a user password to open. Owner password controls editing permissions (defaults to the user password).

Compare two PDFs page by page (by absolute page index) and report text differences. Returns identical:true when text matches. Diffs content-stream-order text (not visual reading order), so it is best for same-layout documents; reflowed or multi-column PDFs produce noisy diffs. Inserting/deleting a page shifts all later pages and reports them as changed. Large diffs are trimmed (truncated:true) to fit the response limit.

Add page numbers to a PDF. Supports configurable position, format, starting number, and font size.

Embed a QR code or barcode into a specific page of a PDF at given coordinates. Supports qrcode, code128, datamatrix, ean13, pdf417, and azteccode.

Reorder pages in a PDF. Specify the new page order as a comma-separated string (e.g. '3,1,2'). Duplicates are allowed. AcroForm fields are preserved. Set flatten:true to bake field values into static content.

Delete specific pages from a PDF, keeping the rest in their original order. AcroForm fields on the remaining pages are preserved. Set flatten:true to bake field values into static content. Cannot delete every page.

Create a new PDF from text content with automatic line wrapping and page overflow. Supports A4, Letter, and Legal page sizes. Provide fontPath for non-Latin text (Arabic, CJK, etc.).

Fill form fields in a PDF. Supports text, checkbox, dropdown, radio, and list-box (multi-select) fields. Provide fontPath for non-Latin text (Arabic, CJK, etc.).

Add a text watermark to PDF pages. Watermark is centered and rotated diagonally by default. Applies to all pages if no page range is specified.

Embed a PNG or JPEG image into a specific page of a PDF. Supports custom positioning and optional scaling with aspect ratio preservation.

Create a rich, high-fidelity PDF from Markdown (CommonMark + GFM). Supports headings, bold/italic, links, ordered/bullet lists, tables, fenced code blocks, blockquotes, and horizontal rules.

Create a polished PDF from a named template (invoice, report, or letter). Pass structured data matching the template's fields; data is validated against the template's schema.

Flatten a PDF's form fields, baking their current values into the page content and removing interactivity. Form-less PDFs are copied unchanged.

Render PDF pages to images so a vision-capable client can read scanned or image-only PDFs. Writes PNG/JPEG files and returns their paths; set inline:true to return image blocks the model can see directly.
