Summary
Connects Claude to Foxit's PDF Services API with 35+ operations covering the full document lifecycle. You get PDF creation from Office docs, HTML, and images, plus conversion back to those formats. Also handles splitting, merging, compression, watermarking, password protection, OCR, form data extraction, and metadata analysis. Available in both Python and TypeScript implementations with feature parity between them. Reach for this when you need production grade PDF manipulation without running local libraries, since everything routes through Foxit's cloud API. Requires API credentials from their developer portal.
