A PDF editor API lets you modify PDF documents programmatically over a REST endpoint instead of editing them by hand. Nutrient DWS Processor API is an HTTP API that can merge, split, delete, flatten, duplicate, and otherwise manipulate PDFs inside your own applications and document workflows.
Yes. You send a PDF and an instruction set to the Processor API over REST, and it returns the edited document — no desktop software or manual steps required. This makes it suitable for automated, high-volume PDF manipulation pipelines.
The PDF editor API supports merging, splitting, deleting pages, duplicating pages, flattening (to lock annotations and forms), and setting page labels — along with the broader set of Processor API document operations.
The API is REST-based, so it works from any language that can make an HTTP request, including JavaScript, Python, Java, PHP, C#, and HTTP (curl). A Postman collection helps you send a first request quickly.
