## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability doc-tools-pdf-to-text-extractor-4426f75e
```

Example prompt: Can you pull out all the text from this PDF for me? Here's the URL: https://example.com/report.pdf

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically extract plain text from a PDF hosted at a public URL, especially in agent workflows where you need to read, summarize, or process document content. It costs only $0.01 USDC per call via x402 micropayment, making it suitable for on-demand per-document extraction rather than bulk batch pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or inaccessible PDF URL returns an error
- URL points to a non-PDF resource causing a parse failure
- Large PDFs may time out or return partial content
- Password-protected PDFs cannot be extracted
- Scanned/image-only PDFs yield little or no text (no OCR)

## How this service works

PDF to text, RSS/Atom feeds to JSON, sitemaps to URL lists.

## Output

Returns the full extracted plain text content of the PDF document as JSON, including all readable text parsed from the document pages
