PDF Skill - PDF to Markdown Conversion

Scheduling

Goal

Convert PDF files into structured Markdown or another requested extraction format while preserving readable document structure for LLM context, RAG, or downstream review.

Intent signature

User asks to convert, parse, read, extract, or transform a PDF.
User needs PDF text, headings, lists, tables, or images prepared for AI consumption.
User mentions "PDF to markdown", "parse PDF", "read this PDF", or equivalent wording.

When to use

Converting PDF documents to Markdown for LLM context or RAG
Extracting structured content such as tables, headings, lists, images, footnotes, or hyperlinks
Preparing PDF data for AI consumption
Checking whether a PDF has a text layer before choosing OCR

When NOT to use

Generating or creating PDFs -> use document-generation tools
Editing existing PDFs -> out of scope
Reading an already-text file -> use direct file reading
Processing HWP, HWPX, DOCX, XLSX, or slide decks -> use the matching document skill

Expected inputs

input_path: PDF file or folder path
output_dir: optional target directory
format: optional output format, default markdown
ocr_languages: optional OCR language list for scanned or image-based PDFs
extraction_options: optional flags for tagged structure, image extraction, or hybrid conversion

Expected outputs

Markdown, text, JSON, HTML, or combined extraction output
Normalized Markdown when Markdown is produced
A short report with output path, page count, and conversion issues

Dependencies

uvx opendataloader-pdf for standard conversion
uvx --from "opendataloader-pdf[hybrid]" opendataloader-pdf-hybrid for OCR or hybrid conversion (the hybrid server is a console script of the [hybrid] extra, not a standalone package)
uvx mdformat for Markdown normalization
