Steps a workflow can run in PDF.co.

  • Convert PDF to textRead the text out of a PDF or a scanned image, ready for a later step to search, summarize or store. OCR reads scans and keeps the layout; the text layer alone is faster and cheaper for PDFs made on a computer.
  • Convert PDF to CSVTurn the tables in a PDF or scanned image into CSV: the rows come back as text for a later step, and as a saved .csv file to attach or upload.
  • Convert PDF to JSONTurn a PDF or scanned image into structured JSON: every page with its text, tables and their positions, for a later step to pick values out of.
  • Convert PDF to HTMLTurn a PDF or scanned image into a web page that keeps its text, fonts and layout. The HTML comes back as text and as a saved .html file.
  • Convert PDF to ExcelTurn the tables in a PDF or scanned image into an Excel spreadsheet, keeping the columns, rows and fonts.
  • Convert PDF to imagesTurn each page of a PDF into an image, for previews, thumbnails or posting a page somewhere that does not take PDFs. Every image is saved.
  • Convert HTML to PDFTurn HTML into a PDF, such as an invoice or report built in an earlier step, with a chosen page size, orientation, margins, header and footer.
  • Convert a web page to PDFSave any public web page as a PDF, the way a browser prints it, with a chosen page size, orientation, margins, header and footer.
  • Convert images to PDFPut JPG, PNG or TIFF images into one PDF, one image per page, in the order given: for example photos of receipts.
  • Convert a document to PDFTurn a Word document (DOC or DOCX), PowerPoint (PPT or PPTX), RTF, TXT or XPS file into a PDF.
  • Convert a spreadsheet to PDFTurn an Excel spreadsheet (XLS or XLSX) or a CSV file into a PDF.
  • Merge PDFsCombine two or more PDFs into one, in the order given. To include Word documents, spreadsheets or images, use Combine files into one PDF.
  • Combine files into one PDFCombine PDFs, Word documents, spreadsheets, images and ZIP files of them into a single PDF, in the order given. Costs more credits than Merge PDFs, so use that when every file is already a PDF.
  • Generate a barcodeMake a QR code or barcode image (PNG) holding a value such as a link, an order number or a product code, optionally with your logo in the middle of a QR code.
  • Split PDF by page rangesSplit a PDF into several files, one for each page range you give, for example one file per chapter or per invoice.
  • Split PDF by textSplit a PDF into several files wherever a page contains some text or a barcode, for example at every page that says 'Invoice No.' in a batch of scanned invoices.
  • Delete pages from a PDFRemove pages from a PDF, such as a cover sheet or blank pages, and keep the rest.
  • Rotate pagesTurn some or all of a PDF's pages clockwise by 90, 180 or 270 degrees.
  • Add text watermarkStamp a line of text, such as DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL, on every page of a PDF (or the pages you choose) at a chosen position, size and color.
  • Add an image to a PDFPlace an image, such as a logo, stamp or signature, on a PDF's pages at a chosen position and size.
  • Fill a PDF formFill in the fields of a fillable PDF form, such as a tax or application form, by field name. Use Read form fields to find the names.
  • Replace text in a PDFFind text in a PDF and put other text in its place, such as filling [CLIENT-NAME] in a contract template with a real name.
  • Remove text from a PDFFind text in a PDF and remove it from the page, such as account numbers or names before sharing a document.
  • Compress a PDFMake a PDF smaller by shrinking its images and fonts, for example to fit an email attachment limit.
  • Make a PDF searchableRun OCR on a scanned PDF or image and add an invisible text layer, so its text can be searched, selected and copied.
  • Password protect a PDFEncrypt a PDF with a password, and choose whether people can print, copy, edit, comment on or fill in the protected file.
  • Remove a PDF's passwordRemove the password and restrictions from a protected PDF, given its password, so later steps can read and change it.
  • Get PDF infoRead a PDF's details: page count and size, title, author and dates, and whether it is encrypted and what it allows.
  • Read form fieldsList the fillable fields in a PDF form with each one's name, type, current value and position: the names Fill a PDF form needs.
  • Find text in a PDFSearch a PDF or scanned image for text and get every match with its page and position, for example to check a document mentions a name before sending it on.
  • Read barcodesScan a PDF or image for barcodes and QR codes and read their values, with the page and position of each.
  • Parse an invoice with AIRead any invoice, whatever its layout, with PDF.co's AI: the vendor, customer, invoice number and dates, totals, payment details and line items, with no template to set up. Costs 100 credits a page and can take up to a few minutes.
  • Parse documentPull the fields and tables out of a PDF or image using one of your PDF.co Document Parser templates: for example the invoice number, due date, and line items on an invoice.
  • List document parser templatesList the Document Parser templates on the account, both your own and the ones PDF.co provides, with the ID needed to parse a document.
  • Get credit balanceGet how many PDF.co credits the account has left, for example to send a warning before they run out.
