About pdfRest API Toolkit
The pdfRest API Toolkit node brings a commercial PDF engine to your n8n workflows. Every operation runs on the Adobe PDF Library, so your documents are processed by the same engine every time, without your team assembling and maintaining PDF libraries of its own.
You choose where documents are processed. Connect to pdfRest Cloud in the US or EU, or point the credential at your own pdfRest Container or AWS deployment. Pair a self-hosted deployment with self-hosted n8n and the PDF step stays inside your network.
One node and one credential cover more than 50 operations. Convert Office files, images, and web pages to PDF, or convert PDF to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Markdown, images, PDF/A, and PDF/X. Make scanned PDFs searchable with OCR, extract text and images, and summarize or translate documents. Merge, split, and compress files, work with form data, and redact, watermark, encrypt, restrict, and digitally sign PDFs.
Operations chain together, so a single workflow can OCR a scanned file, redact it, compress the result, and pass it to the next step.
The node works with n8n Cloud and self-hosted n8n and is open source under the MIT license. Available operations and output depend on your pdfRest deployment and plan.
