Does it handle scanned PDFs?

Yes, if Tesseract OCR is installed on your system, the underlying Docling engine can process scanned documents for high-quality text extraction.

How does this differ from standard PDF reading?

Standard methods often lose formatting or mangle tables; this skill uses specialized AI models to preserve document structure, tables, and visual elements for better LLM comprehension.

Where are the extracted images stored?

Images are saved in a folder named 'images/' located in the same directory as the generated Markdown file, allowing for easy reference and viewing.

Is the conversion process slow?

The initial conversion takes about 1 second per page due to deep AI processing, but subsequent requests for the same file are instant thanks to aggressive content-based caching.

Can it handle complex tables?

Yes, it utilizes IBM's TableFormer model, which is specifically designed to handle complex, borderless, or non-standard table layouts with high accuracy.

The PDF to Markdown skill enables Claude to ingest entire PDF documents with high fidelity by converting them into structured Markdown. Utilizing IBM's Docling AI and TableFormer models, it accurately extracts multi-column layouts, complex tables, and formatted text. Unlike simple text scrapers, this skill preserves document hierarchy and extracts images into a dedicated directory, allowing Claude to analyze charts, diagrams, and figures through integrated image references and intelligent auto-viewing capabilities.
