PDF Central

Agent use case

PDF form automation

Discover, fill, create, and flatten AcroForm fields with explicit schemas.

Recommended pipeline

List fields before filling, match field names exactly, verify the output artifact, and flatten only when downstream editing is no longer required.

  1. Read the live capability detail and project limits.
  2. Upload and complete an immutable input.
  3. Submit the operation with a stable idempotency key and hard cost ceiling.
  4. Read terminal job state, artifact records, hashes, and receipt.
