Extract text and tables from PDF files, fill forms, merge documents. Use when working with PDF files or when the user mentions PDFs, forms, or document 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 Processing Skill

## Quick Start

Use pdfplumber to extract text from PDFs:

```python
import pdfplumber

with pdfplumber.open("document.pdf") as pdf:
    text = pdf.pages[0].extract_text()
    print(text)
```

## Capabilities

### 1. Text Extraction
Extract all text from a PDF document:

```python
def extract_all_text(pdf_path):
    with pdfplumber.open(pdf_path) as pdf:
        full_text = ""
        for page in pdf.pages:
            full_text += page.extract_text() or ""
        return full_text
```

### 2. Table Extraction
Extract tables from PDF pages. For detailed table extraction, see [[TABLES.md]].

Basic example:
```python
with pdfplumber.open("document.pdf") as pdf:
    tables = pdf.pages[0].extract_tables()
    for table in tables:
        print(table)
```

### 3. Form Filling
Fill PDF forms programmatically. For comprehensive form-filling guide, see [[FORMS.md]].

## Best Practices

- **Performance**: For large PDFs, process page-by-page to avoid memory issues
- **OCR**: For scanned PDFs without text layer, recommend using OCR tools first
- **Encoding**: Handle UTF-8 encoding properly when extracting text

## Common Use Cases

- Invoice text extraction

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add hemanth/agentu/pdf-processing@sha256:7a55735696bdec22

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260325.e19c536, 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.
