PdfCraft is the ArtCraft PDF workbench, a clean-room Acrobat Pro reimplementation for macOS, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and the web. Use this skill whenever the user mentions PdfCraft or pdfcraft-cli, asks what it can do, which file formats or shortcuts it supports, or asks to read, render, search, organize, combine, split, rotate, annotate, fill, calculate, sign, redact, OCR, compare, print, protect, layer, measure or convert a PDF; when preparing assets or inputs for it; when driving it…

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

**Audit basis.** Refreshed 2026-11-04 against tag **v0.18.1**, commit **`8bb0528bed785283452263b0290321ccf95859be`** — `git rev-parse HEAD` in the pinned checkout confirms, and the installed `/Applications/PdfCraft.app` matches (its binary prints `pdfcraft 0.18.1`). The previous release this skill described was v0.17.0 (`7d78f3e`).

**v0.17.0 → v0.18.1 delta.** 260 files changed. Automation: **184** tools (183 at v0.17.0; the addition is `doc_bates_multi`) and **210** registry commands (205 at v0.17.0). Wave: rewritten form XObjects keeping `/PCAdded`, structure titles following removed descriptions in redaction, a new document's page tree written once, and a wheel lockup at the edge of non-continuous view. The previous skill's "35 languages" claim is dropped: the `.tsv` language catalogs are gone (the `craft-i18n.rev` pin carries them), so no language count is measurable in-tree.

**Verify against your installed version** — the ArtCraft Launcher auto-updates, so a newer build may differ; every count quoted here was re-measured at this tag, and code paths that moved were re-cited. The measurement method for each count is in `evidence.md`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add midasmatterhorn/artcraft-skills/pdfcraft@sha256:b4e89c3e2d4f1f4c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.a5ac27d, 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.
