I have a PDF book with over 500 pages that I embedded into my workspace in AnythingLLM. However, when using the DeepSeek model, it appears to only retrieve information from the first 20 pages. When I ask questions about content from later pages, the model fails to retrieve relevant information, as if it cannot access anything beyond the initial pages.
