Everything you need for PDF processing

A complete set of PDF operations accessible via a simple REST API. No external libraries, no server setup — just API calls.

Merge

Combine multiple PDFs into a single document. Preserve page order and formatting.

Split

Split a PDF into multiple parts by page ranges or every N pages. Get a ZIP archive of results.

Rotate

Rotate specific pages by 90°, 180°, or 270°. Target individual pages or ranges.

Watermark

Add text watermarks with custom position, size, opacity, and rotation. Apply to all or specific pages.

Compress

Reduce PDF file size with configurable compression levels (low, medium, high).

Protect

Add password protection with granular permissions for printing, copying, modifying, and annotating.

Keep / Remove Pages

Keep or remove specific pages using flexible page specifications like '1-3,5,10-'.

DOCX → PDF

Convert Word documents to PDF format while preserving layout and formatting.

Fill Form Fields

Fill PDF form fields programmatically with your data. Pass field names and values via API and get a completed PDF back.

Detect Form Fields

Automatically detect and extract all form field names, types, and positions from a PDF. Use the result to build your fill-form payload.

One API call. That is it.

Every PDF operation works the same way: upload a file, send a request, get the result. Here is a real example.

Request
curl -X POST https://api.autype.com/api/v1/dev/tools/pdf/watermark \
  -H "X-API-Key: your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{

    "text": "CONFIDENTIAL",
    "fontSize": 50,
    "opacity": 0.3,
    "rotation": -45
  }'
