PaddleOCR
Breaks down PaddleOCR's detection and recognition, layout parsing and 0.9B document model, tracing the path from multilingual or awkward scans to structured Markdown and JSON output.
PaddleOCR is an open-source OCR and document parsing toolkit built on PaddlePaddle. PP-OCRv5 handles general text detection and recognition, PP-StructureV3 recovers layout, tables, formulas and multi-column reading order, and the 0.9B PaddleOCR-VL model takes on curled, skewed and screen-photographed pages across more than a hundred languages. Outputs such as Markdown and JSON are ready for retrieval, extraction and local deployment.
