Overall lands within 0.01 of opendataloader at roughly 2.5× the speed. -**Where we lag:** Heading detection trails opendataloader — many PDFs use bold text at body font size for headings, or headings that are only slightly larger than body text. Table detection trails OCR-based engines that can see visual table structure. +**Where we lag:** Reading order still trails opendataloader slightly, and table structure trails OCR-based engines that can see visual layout. ## Quick start
