Hello,

I would appreciate your help in resolving an issue I’m facing.

Earlier, I successfully used your service for parsing PDF documents with the following basic settings, which provided stable results:

  • Parse mode: parse_page_with_llm
  • High-resolution OCR: enabled (high_res_ocr = true)
  • Adaptive long table processing: enabled (adaptive_long_table = true)
  • Outlined table extraction: enabled (outlined_table_extraction = true)
  • Output tables as HTML: enabled (output_tables_as_HTML = true)

However, since November, using these same settings has resulted in incorrect outputs.

I have also tried selecting specific models for parsing, but the accuracy has significantly decreased. The 'extract' with manual element selection tool does not provide satisfactory results either.

The main challenge arises when dealing with tables that span across multiple pages within a PDF document. While the tables themselves are structured, page breaks cause issues during recognition.

Could you please advise on what settings or tools would be best suited to accurately process PDFs containing such tables?

Thank you very much for your assistance and support!
