What is the Pymupdf4llm MCP Server?

PyMuPDF Utilities for LLM/RAG

The short version

PyMuPDF4LLM is a lightweight extension for PyMuPDF that converts documents into structured Markdown, JSON, and plain text optimised for RAG pipelines, vector embeddings, and LLM ingestion. It handles multi-column layouts, tables, images, headers, and scanned pages with automatic OCR — all powered by the MuPDF C engine.

  • One import, three output formats — — Markdown, JSON, and plain text out of the box
  • No GPU, no cloud — — runs on any machine that can run Python
  • Layout-aware — — multi-column pages, reading-order reconstruction, table detection
  • Smart OCR — — automatically OCRs only the regions that need it, skipping clean text
  • Framework integrations — — drop-in support for LlamaIndex and LangChain
  • Page chunking — — chunk output by page with full metadata per chunk, ready for vector stores
