PDF Processing Toolkit

## Overview

Complete PDF pipeline — extract text and tables, fill forms, merge and split documents, OCR scanned pages, and render page-level previews. Combines three complementary skills for general, production-grade, and deep-extraction PDF workflows.

## Quick Start

1. Install: `npx skillstore add @pdf-processing-toolkit`
2. Extract text from a PDF: use **pdf-analyze** to pull text, tables, or metadata from any document
3. Handle production workflows: use **pdf-processing-pro** for OCR, form filling, batch processing, and validation
4. Deep page inspection: use **pdf-page-extract** to extract per-page text spans, render PNG previews, and read page metadata

## Key Commands

- **pdf-analyze** (21pounder): Extract text blocks, tables, and metadata; create PDFs; merge/split documents; handle form fields — general-purpose PDF operations
- **pdf-processing-pro** (davila7): Production-grade PDF handling — OCR for scanned documents, form detection and filling, batch processing across multiple files, output validation
- **pdf-page-extract** (abejitsu): Page-level precision — extract text with position/span data, render individual pages as PNG images, retrieve page count and dimensions

## Tips

- Pipeline: use pdf-page-extract to render pages as images, then pass to an AI vision model for structured data extraction
- Batch large documents: pdf-processing-pro handles validation and error recovery across multi-file workflows
- Combine with ai-media-production-toolkit: generate a PDF report then render its cover page as an image for sharing
