About
pdf (pointer skill)
Pointer skill — the implementation is not stored here. The name above is the stable local contract; the body lives upstream and is fetched/installed from source so consumers always get the latest version.

- Raw SKILL.md: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anthropics/skills/main/skills/pdf/SKILL.md
- What it does: Comprehensive PDF manipulation — extract text/tables, merge/split, rotate, watermark, fill forms, encrypt/decrypt, extract images, OCR scanned PDFs, create new PDFs.

Installing this skill
- Claude Code (recommended):
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/skills, then/plugin install document-skills@anthropic-agent-skills— this skill ships in the document-skills plugin. - Claude.ai (paid plans): already available, no install.
- Claude API: upload/enable via the Skills API.
- Cursor / GitHub Copilot: copy
skills/pdf/from anthropics/skills into your skills dir (.cursor/skills/,.github/skills/, or the shared.claude/skills/).
Do not copy the upstream body into this file; that would freeze the version and defeat the pointer.
