## 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-to-json-converter-9342ecb1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you convert this PDF (https://example.com/report.pdf) into JSON so I get the text from each page as a structured array along with the document metadata?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to extract readable text content and metadata from a PDF document in a structured, machine-readable JSON format — especially useful for downstream NLP, search indexing, or data pipelines. Best suited for text-based PDFs up to 10 MB; not ideal for scanned/image-only PDFs without OCR.

## Known failure modes

- PDF exceeds 10 MB size limit — request rejected
- Malformed or password-protected PDF — extraction fails with error
- Scanned image-only PDF with no embedded text — returns empty text arrays per page
- Invalid or unreachable PDF URL — fetch error returned
- Network timeout fetching remote PDF

## Output

A structured JSON object containing a per-page text array (one entry per PDF page with the extracted text) and document-level metadata such as page count, title, author, and other embedded PDF properties.

## Request schema (JSON Schema)

```json

 ],
 "properties": {
  "input": {
   "type": "object"
  },
  "output": {
