Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add pdf-letter-mcp -- npx -y pdf-letter-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pdf-letter-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "pdf-letter-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }

  "mcpServers": {
    "pdf-letter-mcp": {
      "args": [

      ],

    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PDF_LETTER_OUTPUT_DIR (Directory for generated letter PDFs, defaults to the system temp directory), PDF_LETTER_FONT_DIR (Additional font directory searched when a font family is resolved by name). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

PDF Letter MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for PDF Letter MCP?
PDF Letter MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package pdf-letter-mcp was installed 38 times last week.
How do I connect PDF Letter MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls pdf-letter-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use PDF Letter MCP?
The npm package pdf-letter-mcp was installed 38 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is PDF Letter MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
