Read, write, and transform PDF files. Use when extracting text or tables from PDFs, merging or splitting documents, rotating pages, adding watermarks, generating new PDFs programmatically, filling AcroForm fields, encrypting/decrypting files, or running OCR on scanned pages.

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

> Practical patterns for reading, writing, and transforming PDF files in Python and from the shell.

## Prerequisites

- Python 3.9+
- Pick libraries by task (install only what you need):
  - `pypdf` -- merge, split, rotate, encrypt, light text extraction, form fields
  - `pdfplumber` -- structured text and table extraction with positional info
  - `reportlab` -- generate new PDFs from code
  - `pdfminer.six` -- low-level text extraction when `pdfplumber` is not enough
  - `pdf2image` + `pytesseract` -- OCR scanned PDFs (needs Poppler + Tesseract installed)
- Shell tools (optional): `qpdf`, `pdftotext`, `pdfimages` from Poppler

## When to Use

- The input or output of the task is a `.pdf` file
- You need to pull text or tables out of a PDF for downstream processing
- You need to assemble, split, or modify existing PDFs
- You need to generate a PDF report from data
- You need to fill an existing PDF form or apply a watermark

## Library Selection

| Goal | Prefer | Notes |
|------|--------|-------|
| Merge / split / rotate | `pypdf` | Fast, pure Python, no native deps |
| Reliable text + tables | `pdfplumber` | Best for layout-aware extraction |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/pdf@sha256:2eb6102fbcc7a860

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
