## 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 pdf-ocr-extractor-mcp-8a1dba87 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: I have a scanned PDF document that I can't copy text from — can you run OCR on it and extract all the readable text for me?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to extract text from scanned or image-based PDFs that do not contain selectable text — particularly when the document was created by scanning a physical page. Prefer this over native PDF text extraction tools when dealing with image-only PDFs, scanned invoices, forms, or archival documents where text is embedded as images rather than as selectable characters.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed base64 data input returns an error
- PDF is encrypted or password-protected and cannot be processed
- Very low-quality scans may result in poor OCR accuracy or partial extraction
- Extremely large PDFs may time out or exceed processing limits
- Non-PDF file formats passed as input may fail to process
