docling_pdf/

lib.rs

//! PDF backend for docling.rs.
//!
//! A port of docling's standard PDF pipeline: pdfium extracts the text layer
//! (cells with bounding boxes) and renders page images; a discriminative ONNX
//! stack (layout detection, table structure, OCR) classifies regions; the cells
//! are assembled in reading order into a [`DoclingDocument`].
//!
//! Current stages: pdfium text-cell extraction + page rendering ([`pdfium_backend`])
//! and the deterministic text/reading-order assembly ([`assemble`]). The layout,
//! table-structure and OCR ONNX stages land behind [`Pipeline`] next.
