+# firecrawl-pdf-inspector
+
+Fast PDF classification and region-based text extraction for Node.js/Bun. Native Rust performance via [napi-rs](https://napi.rs).
+
+Built by [Firecrawl](https://firecrawl.dev) for hybrid OCR pipelines — extract text from PDF structure where possible, fall back to OCR only when needed.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+npm install firecrawl-pdf-inspector
+# or
+bun add firecrawl-pdf-inspector
+```
+
+Prebuilt binaries included for **linux-x64** and **macOS ARM64**. No Rust toolchain needed.
+
+## API
+
+### `classifyPdf(buffer: Buffer): PdfClassification`
+
+Classify a PDF as TextBased, Scanned, Mixed, or ImageBased (~10-50ms). Returns which pages need OCR.
+
+```typescript
+import { classifyPdf } from 'firecrawl-pdf-inspector'
+import { readFileSync } from 'fs'
+
+const pdf = readFileSync('document.pdf')
+const result = classifyPdf(pdf)
+
+console.log(result.pdfType)        // "TextBased" | "Scanned" | "Mixed" | "ImageBased"
+console.log(result.pageCount)      // 42
+console.log(result.pagesNeedingOcr) // [5, 12, 15] (0-indexed)
+console.log(result.confidence)     // 0.875
+```
+
+### `extractTextInRegions(buffer: Buffer, pageRegions: PageRegions[]): PageRegionTexts[]`
+
+Extract text within bounding-box regions from a PDF. Designed for hybrid OCR pipelines where a layout model detects regions in rendered page images, and this function extracts text from the PDF structure for text-based pages — skipping GPU OCR.
+
+Each region result includes a `needsOcr` flag that signals unreliable extraction (empty text, GID-encoded fonts, garbage text, encoding issues).
+
+```typescript
+import { extractTextInRegions } from 'firecrawl-pdf-inspector'
+
+const result = extractTextInRegions(pdf, [
+  {
+    page: 0, // 0-indexed
+    regions: [
+      [0, 0, 300, 400],    // [x1, y1, x2, y2] in PDF points, top-left origin
+      [300, 0, 612, 400],
+    ]
+  }
+])
+
+for (const region of result[0].regions) {
+  if (region.needsOcr) {
+    // Unreliable text — send this region to OCR instead
+  } else {
+    console.log(region.text) // Extracted text in reading order
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Types
+
+```typescript
+interface PdfClassification {
+  pdfType: string          // "TextBased" | "Scanned" | "Mixed" | "ImageBased"
+  pageCount: number
+  pagesNeedingOcr: number[] // 0-indexed page numbers
+  confidence: number        // 0.0 - 1.0
+}
+
+interface PageRegions {
+  page: number              // 0-indexed
+  regions: number[][]       // [[x1, y1, x2, y2], ...] in PDF points, top-left origin
+}
+
+interface PageRegionTexts {
+  page: number
+  regions: RegionText[]
+}
+
+interface RegionText {
+  text: string
+  needsOcr: boolean         // true when text is unreliable
+}
+```
