# PDF Skill

Use this skill whenever a task involves reading, creating, or editing PDF files.

## When to use
- Extracting text or tables from a PDF (native or scanned)
- Merging several PDFs into one, or splitting one apart
- Rotating pages, adding watermarks, or reordering content
- Creating new PDFs from scratch
- Filling or reading PDF form fields
- Encrypting/decrypting, or extracting embedded images
- OCR on scanned documents to make them searchable

## How it works
The skill leans on mature Python libraries — `pypdf` for structural operations, `pdfplumber` for text and table extraction, and `reportlab` for generation — plus command-line tools and an OCR pipeline for scanned input. Choose the lightest tool that satisfies the request and verify the output before returning it.

Description

A comprehensive toolkit for working with PDF files. It reads and extracts text and tables from native or scanned documents, merges and splits files, rotates pages, adds watermarks, fills interactive forms, encrypts and decrypts, extracts embedded images, and runs OCR to make scanned PDFs searchable. Use it whenever a .pdf file is an input or the requested output.
