Included Skills3

pdf-compressingskills/pdf-compressing/SKILL.md

This skill should be used when the user asks to "compress a pdf", "shrink a pdf", "reduce pdf file size", "PDF komprimieren", "PDF verkleinern", or "run pdf-compressing". Uses Ghostscript to compress a given PDF, writing the output next to the original with a `_komprimiert.pdf` suffix.

pdf-ocr-addingskills/pdf-ocr-adding/SKILL.md

This skill should be used when a PDF has no text layer and cannot be searched or grepped — when the user asks to "make this pdf searchable", "run OCR", "PDF durchsuchbar machen", "Texterkennung", "das PDF lässt sich nicht durchsuchen", "warum findet die Suche nichts", or "run pdf-ocr-adding". Adds an invisible text layer with ocrmypdf while leaving the page images untouched. Complements pdf-compressing, which changes the images instead.

pdf-xfa-printingskills/pdf-xfa-printing/SKILL.md

This skill should be used when an XFA form's real body text is needed, not just its field data — when the user asks to "convert this XFA form", "XFA konvertieren", "XFA-Formular in normales PDF umwandeln", "XFA-PDF ausdrucken und ersetzen", "make this XFA form a normal PDF", or "run pdf-xfa-printing", or when a pdf-xfa-extracting result lacks the body text. macOS only (Adobe Reader plus the PDFwriter virtual printer). Walks the user through printing, then verifies the result and replaces the original.
