pdf-conversion-router
authentic
Use when converting a PDF into another format such as Markdown, HTML, text, JSON, DOCX, or structured notes and the agent must choose the best extraction route, settings, and cleanup strategy for maximum fidelity and readability.
When to use
- The user wants a PDF converted into another format.
- The requested output is `.md`, `.html`, `.txt`, `.json`, `.docx`, or structured notes.
- The PDF may be scanned, OCR-heavy, table-heavy, slide-based, medical, academic, or multi-column.
When not to use
- This skill routes and validates conversion work; it does not guarantee that `opendataloader-pdf`, OCR tools, or PDF utilities are installed in every environment.
- Complex PDFs can still require manual structural repair after the best route succeeds.
- OCR quality, source scan quality, and malformed PDF internals can limit fidelity no matter which route is chosen.
- Visual fidelity is secondary to document fidelity, so exact page layout may not be preserved unless the user explicitly requests it.
