PdfCraft

A pure-Rust PDF reader and editing workbench

Facts were checked against the author README, repository license files or metadata, and the official release listing where available. RecompGames has not independently run these applications.

What it is

PdfCraft is an open-source PDF reader and editor built from scratch in Rust. The author README covers reading, organizing, combining, splitting, commenting, forms, signatures, CLI/MCP control, and native plus web builds.

Requirements

Use an official release for the target platform or follow the upstream Rust build documentation. Source builds require Rust 1.95 or later; release builds include the documented OCR model inputs.

Limitations and review boundary

  • The author calls PdfCraft alpha; reliable existing-text editing, especially CJK and right-to-left, remains thin or missing.
  • Office import/export, advanced OCR, Preflight, PDF/X/UA, web printing, and some signature workflows are still incomplete.
  • The project reports ongoing fuzzing findings; this catalog has not independently opened or edited hostile PDFs.
