PdfCraft is an open-source PDF management and editing application built in Rust that provides tools for viewing, organizing, modifying, and securing PDF documents. The software allows users to combine multiple PDFs, split documents, extract pages, rearrange content, and manage bookmarks through a native interface. It supports document searching, text selection, annotations, interactive forms, attachments, and optional content layers. PdfCraft includes password protection, encryption support, document metadata editing, and incremental saving that preserves original file data. The platform also provides command-line tools, a Rust API, and a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for automating PDF operations and integrating with AI agents. Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, FreeBSD, and web browsers, PdfCraft operates locally without requiring an account, cloud processing, or telemetry.
