Extract text from PDF documents.

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

Extracts text from PDF files using `pypdf` as the primary parser, with
`pdfminer.six` as a fallback for CJK fonts that pypdf cannot decode
(detected when pypdf yields fewer than 50 characters per page on average).

## Setup

```bash
pip install pypdf pdfminer.six
```

## Standalone usage

```python
import asyncio
from synthadoc.skills.pdf.scripts.main import PdfSkill

skill = PdfSkill()

async def main():
    result = await skill.extract("/path/to/paper.pdf")
    print(result.text)          # extracted text from all pages
    print(result.metadata)      # {"pages": N, "cjk_fallback": bool, ...}

asyncio.run(main())
```

## When this skill is used

- Source path ends with `.pdf`
- User intent contains: `pdf`, `research paper`

## Scripts

- `scripts/main.py` — `PdfSkill` class

## References

- `references/cjk-notes.md` — notes on CJK font handling

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add axoviq-ai/synthadoc/pdf@sha256:4e9abf505fa951f0

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, 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.
