PDF Reader Tool

The PDF Reader Tool enables agents to extract text from one or more PDF files. It supports both local file paths and remote URLs via HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP. This is particularly useful for scenarios where agents need to process documents, extract structured/unstructured content, or incorporate PDF-based data into workflows.

This tool helps automate tasks that involve reading content from PDFs, so your agent can use that information in the workflow without manual effort.
