At a glance

Convert a finished raster image, especially a generated poster or visual resume, into an image-based PDF with an additional selectable, copyable, searchable text layer.

  • The image is the final visual layout
  • SKILL.md covers Workflow, OCR Word Conversion and Practical Rules
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python
  • Recreating that layout in PPT

What it does

Image To Text PDF is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Convert a finished raster image, especially a generated poster or visual resume, into an image-based PDF with an additional selectable, copyable, searchable text layer. Use when the image is the final visual layout, when recreating that layout in PPT, HTML, or LaTeX would be fragile, and when the user needs both a final invisible-text PDF and a visible inspection PDF for checking OCR or text-layer placement.

Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/layout-json.md`, `references/ocr-alignment.md` and `scripts/compose_image_text_pdf.py`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering PDF and LaTeX. It works with LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • The image is the final visual layout
  • Recreating that layout in PPT
  • LaTeX would be fragile
  • When the user needs both a final invisible-text PDF and a visible inspection PDF for checking OCR

Example prompts

  • “/image-to-text-pdf”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 44923f3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Image To Text PDF loads about 847 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 107 tokens; SKILL.md has 353 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~107
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~847
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 353 words (~847 tokens).

“Turn a finished raster image into a PDF while preserving the image exactly and adding a transparent text layer for selection, copying, and search.”
