What problem does it solve?
Many workflows require extracting text, tables, and form data from digital or scanned PDFs and programmatically filling or annotating PDFs; doing this manually is time-consuming and error-prone. This skill centralizes common PDF operations so you can convert documents into structured data, batch-fill forms, and restore editable content quickly.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Form Filling (fillable & non-fillable): Extract form structure or visually estimate coordinates, then programmatically fill fields or add text annotations.
- Text and Table Extraction: Use OCR and layout-aware extraction to pull plain text and structured tables into CSV or dataframes.
- Common Tools & Tasks: Merge/split/rotate PDFs, extract images, apply watermarks, and add/remove password protection for automation pipelines.
- Use Case: Batch-process vendor invoices to extract invoice numbers, dates, line items, and totals, then populate a spreadsheet and programmatically archive processed PDFs.
Quick Start
Use the scripts to convert input.pdf to images, extract text and fields, and produce a filled output PDF in one automated run.
