Server details

Identifier: com.pdfoven/pdfoven
Transport: Streamable HTTP
Runtime: Web executable
Trust: Verified
Published: Oct 16, 2026

Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified that this server's namespace belongs to pdfoven.com, which also runs its endpoint. That identifies the publisher; it does not make the server's tools safe.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

PDFOven renders PDFs and PNG images from HTML, Markdown, URLs or templates, and edits existing PDFs, through a hosted remote MCP endpoint.

What you can do: Render PDFs and PNG images from HTML, Markdown, a URL, or a saved template with data, including built-in social card templates
Merge, split and compress PDFs, and stamp text or image watermarks onto pages
List, read, create, update and delete reusable templates stored in the account
Inspect a fillable PDF's form fields and fill them by name, optionally flattening the result
Return rendered files as base64 resources or inline images
When to use it: Useful when an assistant needs to produce documents or images on demand — reports, invoices, social cards, screenshots of a page — or to tidy up and fill existing PDFs without running local rendering software.
Requirements: Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at pdfoven.com; no local package. Requires a PDFOven account and an API key sent as a bearer token in the Authorization header. Renders draw on the account's monthly quota, which varies by plan.

Before you install

The API key is a secret sent in the Authorization header. Every successful render, merge, split, compress, watermark or form fill consumes one render from the monthly quota, and templates are capped per plan. Template deletion is permanent and breaks renders that reference it. Content sent for rendering, including URLs and template data, goes to a third-party service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open PDFOven in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
Connect Authorization token credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.pdfoven%2Fpdfoven/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Tools

render_pdf

Render PDF

Render a PDF from exactly one source: html, markdown, url, template (+data) or template_id (+data). Returns the PDF as a base64 embedded resource. Each successful call uses one render from the account's monthly quota; nothing is stored. Over quota or invalid input returns a tool error explaining why.

Parameterscssurldatahtmloptionsmarkdowntemplatetemplate_id

render_image

Render image

Render a PNG image from exactly one source: html, markdown, url (a website screenshot), template (+data) or template_id (+data). Built-in 1200x630 social cards: tpl_og_article, tpl_og_product and tpl_og_announcement. Returns the image inline. Each successful call uses one render from the monthly quota; nothing is stored.

Parameterscssurldatahtmloptionsmarkdowntemplatetemplate_id

merge_pdfs

Merge PDFs

Join 2-50 PDFs into one, in order, optionally picking pages from each. Returns the merged PDF as a base64 resource. Uses one render from the monthly quota.

Parametersfilesrequiredfilename

split_pdf

Split PDF

Split a PDF. Send pages to extract one PDF, ranges for one PDF per range (returned as a zip), or every to split into chunks of N pages. Uses one render.

Parametersfilerequiredeverypagesranges

compress_pdf

Compress PDF

Make a PDF smaller by recompressing and downscaling large images and cleaning unused data. Returns the original unchanged if it can't be made smaller. Uses one render.

Parametersfilerequiredlevelremove_metadata

watermark_pdf

Watermark PDF

Stamp text (Latin characters) or a PNG/JPEG image onto a PDF's pages: centred and diagonal, tiled, or in a corner. Uses one render.

Parametersfilerequiredtextcolorimagepagesopacitypositionrotation

list_pdf_form_fields

List a fillable PDF's form fields: name, type, current value, options and page. Use the names with fill_pdf_form. Does not use render quota.

Parametersfilerequired

fill_pdf_form

Fill PDF form

Fill a PDF form's fields by name (text, checkboxes as true/false, radio and dropdown options) and optionally flatten it so it can't be edited. Unknown field names are an error with suggestions. Uses one render.

Parametersfilerequiredfieldsrequiredstrictflatten

list_templates

List templates

List every template saved in the PDFOven account, newest first, as JSON with id, name, engine and sample_data. Use an id with render_pdf/render_image (template_id) or get_template. Does not use render quota.

Takes no parameters.

get_template

Get template

Fetch one saved template in full: content, css, sample_data and page_options. Use it before update_template to see the current body. Does not use render quota.

Parameterstemplate_idrequired

create_template

Create template

Save a new reusable template to the account and return its id. Templates are capped per plan (Free 3); at the cap this returns a tool error. Render it later with render_pdf or render_image and template_id plus data.

delete_template

Delete template

Permanently delete a saved template. This cannot be undone, and renders that reference its template_id will fail afterwards. Confirm with the user first.
