from docling.datamodel.base_models import InputFormat
from docling.datamodel.pipeline_options import PdfPipelineOptions
from docling_surya import SuryaOcrOptions
from docling.document_converter import DocumentConverter, PdfFormatOption

pipeline_options = PdfPipelineOptions(
    do_ocr=True,
    ocr_model="suryaocr",           # Plugin engine name
    allow_external_plugins=True,     # Required for third-party plugins
    ocr_options=SuryaOcrOptions(
