Available tools 7

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

compress_pdf

Reduce a PDF's file size losslessly by consolidating object streams (keeps text selectable). Returns base64 plus before/after sizes. Note: does not re-encode embedded images.

merge

merge_pdf

Merge two or more PDFs into one, in the order given. Returns the merged PDF as base64.

pages

delete_pages

Remove specific pages from a PDF by their 1-based page numbers, keeping the rest in order. Returns base64.

pdf

get_pdf_info

Read-only. Return a PDF's page count and per-page dimensions (in points). Use this first to plan a split or rotate.

protect

protect_pdf

Encrypt a PDF with a password (AES). The result requires the password to open. Returns base64.

rotate

rotate_pdf

Fixmypdf — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Fixmypdf do?

It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: compress_pdf, delete_pages, get_pdf_info, merge_pdf, protect_pdf, rotate_pdf and 1 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Fixmypdf working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 2 of 91 checks got a reply (2.2%), average response time 432 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

Is Fixmypdf still maintained?

The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.

The registry lists Fixmypdf as active — why does it not respond?

The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.

How do I connect Fixmypdf?

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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Fixmypdf need an API key?

No. Fixmypdf completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Fixmypdf?

It answers our handshake in 432 ms on average, which is faster than 37% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
