\n\n## Prompt Pack & resources\n\n- [User Guide](https://pdf-reader.kdandoc.com/products/mcp/claude-user-guide) — step-by-step setup walkthrough.\n- [Prompt Pack](https://pdf-reader.kdandoc.com/products/mcp/claude-prompt-pack) — 24 ready-to-use prompts across 6 categories (Translate, Compare, Remove Pages, Encrypt, Redact, Compress).\n- [Product page](https://pdf-reader.kdandoc.com/products/mcp/claude)\n\n## Privacy & security\n\nKDAN PDF MCP applies **true PDF redaction** — targeted content is permanently removed, not masked with an overlay, so it cannot be recovered from the output file. KDAN Mobile operates under GDPR, Taiwan PDPA and CCPA. For full details see KDAN's [Security](https://www.kdandoc.com/security), [Privacy Policy](https://www.kdandoc.com/privacy-policy) and [GDPR Compliance](https://www.kdandoc.com/gdpr-compliance) pages.\n\n## FAQ\n\n### Q1: Is KDAN PDF MCP free?\n**A:** Yes — completely free and unlimited, with no upsell and no credit card required.\n\n### Q2: Can it redact PII in a PDF?\n**A:** Yes. Once national IDs, credit cards, emails and phone numbers are detected, KDAN PDF MCP applies permanent, compliance-ready redaction.\n\n### Q3: How is this different from Claude's built-in PDF reading?\n**A:** On its own, an AI assistant can only read a PDF. KDAN PDF MCP adds full editing — encrypt, delete pages, redact and save new copies — all through chat.\n\n### Q4: Which AI assistants are supported?\n**A:** Claude (web and desktop) and ChatGPT. Setup steps for each are above.\n\n### Q5: Do I need a KDAN account?\n**A:** No. There's no sign-up — paste the connector URL once and start using it.\n\n### Q6: Can I use it on a free Claude plan?\n**A:** Yes, KDAN PDF MCP works on free Claude accounts. ChatGPT may require a paid plan to add connectors.\n\n### Q7: Does redaction actually remove the data, or just cover it?\n**A:** It removes it. KDAN PDF MCP applies true redaction rather than a visual black box, so the underlying text can't be copied or recovered.\n\n### Q8: What PDF tasks are supported?\n**A:** Compress, delete pages, password-protect / change password, redact PII, compare two versions, preview, and generate a download link.\n\n### Q9: What languages can I give instructions in?\n**A:** You can chat in the language your AI assistant supports; instructions work in natural language.\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n- **Connector doesn't appear?** Restart Claude Desktop after adding it, then check Settings → Connectors.\n- **Authorization didn't complete?** Remove the connector and re-add the URL `https://mcp.kdandoc.com/mcp`.\n- **Assistant only reads the PDF?** Confirm KDAN PDF MCP shows as connected, and mention \"KDAN PDF\" in your request.\n- **Large file is slow?** Bigger PDFs take longer to process — let it finish before sending the next instruction.\n\n## Support & feedback\n\n- Product page & updates: [pdf-reader.kdandoc.com](https://pdf-reader.kdandoc.com)\n- Questions or issues: open an [issue on GitHub](https://github.com/KDAN-PDF/KDAN-PDF-MCP/issues).\n","changelogMarkdown","videoKey","requiredSecretsJson","publishedAt","priceCents","trialDays",0,"upstream",{"_114":115,"_116":117,"_118":-5,"_119":120,"_121":122,"_123":124},"requiredSecrets",[],"tags",[99,100,101,102,103,104,105,106,107,108,109,110,111,112,113],"assets",[],"stats",{"_97":86,"_98":86},"ratingAvg","reviewCount","ai-automation","chatgpt","claude","connector","kdan","llm-tools","pdf","pdf-compare","pdf-compress","pdf-deletepages","pdf-password","pdf-reader","pdf-redaction","pdf-viewer","workflow-automation","topics",[99,100,101,102,103,104,125,126,105,106,107,108,109,110,111,112,113],"license","MIT","language","registryName","com.kdandoc.mcp/kdan-pdf-mcp","homepage","https://pdf-reader.kdandoc.com/products/mcp/claude","packages",[],"mcp","model-context-protocol","ENV",{"_129":130,"_131":132,"_133":134},"ENVIRONMENT","production","TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY","0x4AAAAAAB8-rEI2gNDf_QhU","SENTRY_DSN","https://45fd1229f78089d5c3ee78be128030e1@o4510583261757440.ingest.de.sentry.io/4510584253448272"]
