Use when tasks involve reading, creating, or reviewing PDF files where rendering and layout matter; prefer visual checks by rendering pages (Poppler) and use Python tools such as `reportlab`, `pdfplumber`, and `pypdf` for generation and extraction.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# PDF Skill ## When to use - Read or review PDF content where layout and visuals matter. - Create PDFs programmatically with reliable formatting. - Validate final rendering before delivery. ## Workflow 1. Prefer visual review: render PDF pages to PNGs and inspect them. - Use `pdftoppm` if available. - If unavailable, install Poppler or ask the user to review the output locally. 2. Use `reportlab` to generate PDFs when creating new documents. 3. Use `pdfplumber` (or `pypdf`) for text extraction and quick checks; do not rely on it for layout fidelity. 4. After each meaningful update, re-render pages and verify alignment, spacing, and legibility. ## Temp and output conventions - Use `tmp/pdfs/` for intermediate files; delete when done. - Write final artifacts under `output/pdf/` when working in this repo. - Keep filenames stable and descriptive. ## Dependencies (install if missing) Prefer `uv` for dependency management. Python packages: ``` uv pip install reportlab pdfplumber pypdf ``` If `uv` is unavailable: ``` python3 -m pip install reportlab pdfplumber pypdf ``` System tools (for rendering): ``` # macOS (Homebrew) brew install poppler # Ubuntu/Debian …

How to install
mdr add julianromli/ai-skills/pdf@sha256:d108cf2b36355ab3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260505.3e57ae0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
