Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 vextorium-pdf-page-extractor-318f63b6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Take the PDF at https://example.com/report.pdf and create a new PDF with only pages 1-3 and 7, then give me the result as base64.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically extract a specific subset of pages from a remotely hosted PDF and receive the result as base64 for further processing or storage. Prefer this over full-PDF downloads when only certain pages are needed, or when you want to create a trimmed document without manual editing tools.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-PDF content — extraction fails
- Page range string references pages beyond the PDF's actual page count — partial or empty result
- Malformed page range string (e.g. invalid syntax) — request rejection
- PDF is password-protected or DRM-restricted — extraction fails
- Very large PDFs may time out during download or processing

## How this service works

Create a new PDF with only the pages you choose (e.g. 1-3,7) from a PDF at a URL, returned in base64.

## Output

A JSON object containing the base64-encoded content of the newly created PDF (base64), its size in bytes (bytes), and the number of pages in the output PDF (paginas).
