MinerU is a tool that converts PDFs into machine-readable formats (e.g., markdown, JSON), allowing for easy extraction into any format. MinerU was born during the pre-training process of InternLM. We focus on solving symbol conversion issues in scientific literature and hope to contribute to technological development in the era of large models. Compared to well-known commercial products, MinerU is still young. If you encounter any issues or if the results are not as expected, please submit an issue on issue and attach the relevant PDF.

- Removes elements such as headers, footers, footnotes, and page numbers while maintaining semantic continuity
- Outputs text in a human-readable order from multi-column documents
- Retains the original structure of the document, including titles, paragraphs, and lists
- Extracts images, image captions, tables, and table captions
- Automatically recognizes formulas in the document and converts them to LaTeX
- Automatically recognizes tables in the document and converts them to LaTeX
- Automatically detects and enables OCR for corrupted PDFs
- Supports both CPU and GPU environments
- Supports Windows, Linux, and Mac platforms
If you encounter any installation issues, please first consult the FAQ.
If the parsing results are not as expected, refer to the Known Issues.
There are three different ways to experience MinerU:
To ensure the stability and reliability of the project, we only optimize and test for specific hardware and software environments during development. This ensures that users deploying and running the project on recommended system configurations will get the best performance with the fewest compatibility issues.
By focusing resources on the mainline environment, our team can more efficiently resolve potential bugs and develop new features.
In non-mainline environments, due to the diversity of hardware and software configurations, as well as third-party dependency compatibility issues, we cannot guarantee 100% project availability. Therefore, for users who wish to use this project in non-recommended environments, we suggest carefully reading the documentation and FAQ first. Most issues already have corresponding solutions in the FAQ. We also encourage community feedback to help us gradually expand support.

conda create -n MinerU python=3.10
conda activate MinerU
pip install magic-pdf[full]==0.7.0b1 --extra-index-url https://wheels.myhloli.comRefer to How to Download Model Files for detailed instructions.
❗️After downloading the models, please make sure to verify the completeness of the model files.
Check if the model file sizes match the description on the webpage. If possible, use sha256 to verify the integrity of the files.
You can find the magic-pdf.template.json template configuration file in the root directory of the repository.
❗️Make sure to execute the following command to copy the configuration file to your user directory; otherwise, the program will not run.
The user directory for Windows is
C:\Users\YourUsername, for Linux it is/home/YourUsername, and for macOS it is/Users/YourUsername.
cp magic-pdf.template.json ~/magic-pdf.jsonFind the magic-pdf.json file in your user directory and configure the "models-dir" path to point to the directory where the model weight files were downloaded in Step 2.
❗️Make sure to correctly configure the absolute path to the model weight files directory, otherwise the program will not run because it can't find the model files.
On Windows, this path should include the drive letter and all backslashes (
\) in the path should be replaced with forward slashes (/) to avoid syntax errors in the JSON file due to escape sequences.For example: If the models are stored in the "models" directory at the root of the D drive, the "model-dir" value should be
D:/models.
{
// other config
"models-dir": "D:/models",
"table-config": {
"is_table_recog_enable": false, // Table recognition is disabled by default, modify this value to enable it
"max_time": 400
}
}If your device supports CUDA and meets the GPU requirements of the mainline environment, you can use GPU acceleration. Please select the appropriate guide based on your system:
magic-pdf --help
Usage: magic-pdf [OPTIONS]
Options:
-v, --version display the version and exit
-p, --path PATH local pdf filepath or directory [required]
-o, --output-dir TEXT output local directory
-m, --method [ocr|txt|auto] the method for parsing pdf.
ocr: using ocr technique to extract information from pdf,
txt: suitable for the text-based pdf only and outperform ocr,
auto: automatically choose the best method for parsing pdf
from ocr and txt.
without method specified, auto will be used by default.
--help Show this message and exit.
## show version
magic-pdf -v
## command line example
magic-pdf -p {some_pdf} -o {some_output_dir} -m auto{some_pdf} can be a single PDF file or a directory containing multiple PDFs.
The results will be saved in the {some_output_dir} directory. The output file list is as follows:
├── some_pdf.md # markdown file
├── images # directory for storing images
├── layout.pdf # layout diagram
├── middle.json # MinerU intermediate processing result
├── model.json # model inference result
├── origin.pdf # original PDF file
└── spans.pdf # smallest granularity bbox position information diagram

TODO
- Semantic-based reading order
- List recognition within the text
- Code block recognition within the text
- Table of contents recognition
- Table recognition
- Chemical formula recognition
- Geometric shape recognition
- Reading order is segmented based on rules, which can cause disordered sequences in some cases
- Vertical text is not supported
- Lists, code blocks, and table of contents are not yet supported in the layout model
- Comic books, art books, elementary school textbooks, and exercise books are not well-parsed yet
- Enabling OCR may produce better results in PDFs with a high density of formulas
- If you are processing PDFs with a large number of formulas, it is strongly recommended to enable the OCR function. When using PyMuPDF to extract text, overlapping text lines can occur, leading to inaccurate formula insertion positions.
- Table Recognition is currently in the testing phase; recognition speed is slow, and accuracy needs improvement. Below are some performance test results in an Ubuntu 22.04 LTS + Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8352V CPU @ 2.10GHz + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 environment for reference.
| Table Size | Parsing Time |
|---|---|
| 6*5 55kb | 37s |
| 16*12 284kb | 3m18s |
| 44*7 559kb | 4m12s |
This project currently uses PyMuPDF to achieve advanced functionality. However, since it adheres to the AGPL license, it may impose restrictions on certain usage scenarios. In future iterations, we plan to explore and replace it with a more permissive PDF processing library to enhance user-friendliness and flexibility.
