What prerequisites are needed to run this skill?

The skill requires Python and specific libraries like PyMuPDF for fast extraction, and pdf2image/poppler for vision-based processing.

Does this skill handle images within the PDF?

Yes, it extracts images in Fast mode and provides descriptive text placeholders for diagrams or visual elements when using Vision mode.

Can I convert only specific pages of a large PDF?

Yes, you can specify page ranges using the --pages option to target specific sections and optimize processing time.

How does Vision mode differ from Fast mode?

Fast mode uses standard text extraction for speed on simple layouts, while Vision mode analyzes page images to accurately capture complex elements like tables, code blocks, and multi-column designs.
