# olmOCR Markdown Converter

This Space uses the `olmOCR` model pipeline to convert PDFs (including scientific papers) into markdown `.txt` files that retain document structure, headers, and basic math formatting — ready for Calibre/Kindle or downstream parsing.

- ✅ Vision + text anchor OCR pipeline (via `olmOCR`)
- ✅ Extracts semantic structure via PDF TOC
- ✅ Outputs clean `.txt` in markdown format
- ✅ Hugging Face **Gradio Space with GPU support**

## Example Use

Upload a scientific paper in PDF and download a markdown `.txt` version with preserved headers and inline structure.
