FAQ from Pdf Toolkit Mcp
What are the system requirements?
Node.js 18 or higher is required. The server runs offline and does not need Docker or any API keys.
What barcode types are supported?
QR Code, Code128, DataMatrix, EAN‑13, PDF417, and Aztec Code. Position and size are fully configurable.
What are the known limitations?
Merge/split/reorder do not preserve form fields. Text extraction returns PDF stream order, not visual reading order. By default only the first 10 pages are extracted. Only JPEG and PNG images can be embedded. Encryption uses RC4 128‑bit, not AES. Non‑Latin characters in form filling require a custom font file.
Is configuration required?
No. The server is zero-config: just install with npx and add it to your MCP client. No config files are needed.
Which clients are supported?
Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code (via GitHub Copilot Agent), and Windsurf are all supported with example configurations provided in the README.
