# PDF Skill

Create PDFs from structured specs, build and fill AcroForm forms (with layout linting and visual overlays), extract text/tables/metadata, merge/split/rotate/watermark/stamp pages, export page images, manage metadata and attachments, and encrypt/decrypt — using pypdf, reportlab, and pdfplumber. Two absorbed capabilities live in references/ (read the matching file before those tasks):

- **Scanned/image-only PDFs and OCR** (pymupdf fast path, marker-pdf quality path, scripts/extract_pymupdf.py + scripts/extract_marker.py): `references/ocr-extraction.md`
- **Editing text inside an existing PDF via natural-language prompts** (nano-pdf CLI): `references/nano-pdf-editing.md`

## When to Use

- Generate a report, invoice, or multi-page document as PDF.
- Build a fillable AcroForm (text/checkbox/radio/dropdown) from a JSON spec, linting the layout first.
- Pull text, tables (JSON/CSV), metadata, or form-field values out of a PDF.
- Merge, split, rotate, extract page subsets, watermark, stamp text/images at coordinates, bookmark, or compress PDFs.
- Export pages as PNGs for visual review or for OCR hand-off; set/clear document metadata; add/extract file attachments.
