Connect AI assistants

Connect ReflowPDF to Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant, and it turns what it writes into a print-ready PDF: an invoice, a contract, a report, a letter, a CV, a certificate. Every answer gives you two links: the PDF, and the same document in the ReflowPDF editor, where you change it on the page and download it again.

Connect

ReflowPDF is a remote MCP server. Its address is https://app.reflowpdf.com/mcp. It works as soon as it is added, without an account.

Claude

On claude.ai, in Claude Desktop or the mobile app: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, then paste the address.

ChatGPT

Settings → Apps → Advanced, turn on Developer mode, then Create app and paste the address. Choose No authentication to use it as a guest, or OAuth to sign in to your ReflowPDF account.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http reflowpdf https://app.reflowpdf.com/mcp

Cursor, VS Code and other clients

Add a remote server over Streamable HTTP with the address. In Cursor, in ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "reflowpdf": {
      "url": "https://app.reflowpdf.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

In VS Code, in .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "reflowpdf": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.reflowpdf.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Without an account, and with one

Without an account, every page is printed, with a small ReflowPDF mark. A free account gives you 50 pages a month without the mark; Pro and Max have no limit (see pricing).

Ask the assistant to connect your account: it shows a Connect button, and from then on its prints are your account’s.
Or open a document’s edit link while signed in and choose Make it mine: that document moves into your account.

Things to ask

Each of these was asked of an assistant connected to ReflowPDF; below each is what came back.

“Make an invoice from ReflowPDF’s templates for Acme GmbH: 3 hours of design at €90, due in 14 days.”

The gallery’s invoice on one A4 page: €270.00, due 14 days from today. What the assistant did not know — your company details, bank account, VAT number — it named instead of making up.

“Write a short Q3 project report with a cover page, a table of contents and page numbers. Revenue: July $1.48M, August $1.59M, September $1.75M. Seven of nine milestones were on time; the data migration slipped three weeks.”

Four pages: a cover, a table of contents with the right page numbers, a revenue chart and table, and “Page X of Y” at the foot of each page.

“Turn this text into a one-page CV, A4, two columns.” — with your CV text pasted below.

Then, in the same chat: “Move the skills section to the top.”

A two-column CV. After the second request, the same edit link opens the new version.

“Make an event ticket for the Lisbon Design Summit on 14 March 2027, seat B12, with a QR code that links to https://example.com/tickets/B12.”

A ticket with a tear-off stub. The QR code scans to that address.

“Make a fillable job application form: name, email, phone, the position from a dropdown (Designer, Engineer, Manager), a start date and a signature.”

A PDF form that fills in Acrobat, Preview or a browser: text fields, a dropdown and a signature field.

“Put my logo in the header of a letter to Harbor & Pine about our new delivery schedule, Letter size.” — with the logo attached.

A one-page Letter-size letter with your logo in the header. If your assistant cannot take the attached file itself, it first gives you a link to upload it.

Change a document later

Open the edit link and change anything on the page: type, add rows to a table, drag in your own pictures. Then ask in the same chat for something more — “on page 2, remove the second table” — and the assistant reads your edits first and changes the document by the same link.

Your own pictures

Attach a logo or a photo to your message and ask for it in the document. An assistant that passes attached files on to its tools sends the picture to ReflowPDF as it is. One that cannot, Claude among them, gives you an upload link instead: pick the files on your device there (a phone works too), tell the assistant you are done, and it puts them in place. You can also drop pictures onto the page in the editor, at the edit link. A picture at a public https address can simply be named in the chat.

Tools

The tools the server gives your assistant:

render_pdf: Prints an HTML document with its CSS as paged PDF: a PDF link and an edit link.
render_template: Fills a template with JSON data and prints it — a gallery template or the assistant’s own.
list_templates: Lists the gallery’s ready documents: invoices, quotes, reports, contracts, letters, CVs, certificates, tickets and more.
get_template: Returns a gallery template’s source and sample data, to fill or adapt.
open_in_editor: Opens a document in the ReflowPDF editor and returns its edit link, without printing.
get_document: Reads a document as it is now, including your changes in the editor.
update_document: Writes a new version of a document by its link and prints it again.
upload_image: Keeps an image for a document: a picture you attached in the chat, or one the assistant made.
ask_for_images: Gives you a link to upload your pictures from your device, for the assistant to put in the document.
import_pdf: Opens an existing PDF in the editor’s import, which rebuilds it as an editable document: one you attached, or one at a public address.
connect_account: Signs you in to your ReflowPDF account from the chat.
read_guide: The engine’s guide for the assistant: paper and margins, headers and footers, tables of contents, footnotes, columns, charts, QR codes, forms.

How long things are kept

PDFs stay at their link for 24 hours.
Documents stay at their edit link for 30 days after their last change. Anyone with an edit link can open the document, so share it as you would a private document link.

The details are in the privacy policy. Questions: hello@reflowpdf.com.
