47
+ ## Why libmumd?
48
+
49
+ Most document converters produce messy output — broken tables, lost formatting, garbled non-English text. **libmumd** is different:
50
+
51
+ - **Persian & Arabic first-class support** — Correctly handles RTL text, Persian typography, and Arabic script
52
+ - **Better than markitdown alone** — Uses PyMuPDF's layout engine for cleaner, more accurate conversion
53
+ - **Multi-language support** — Handles Persian, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and European languages
54
+ - **Table detection** — Automatically converts complex tables to Markdown format
55
+ - **Figure & image handling** — Extracts and references images properly
56
+ - **Layout-aware** — Preserves reading order, headers, and document structure
57
+ - **No GPU required** — Runs on any machine with Python
58
+
59
+ ## Features
60
+
61
+ | Feature | Description |
62
+ |---------|-------------|
63
+ | **PDF → Markdown** | High-quality extraction with layout preservation |
64
+ | **Office → Markdown** | Convert `.docx`, `.pptx`, `.xlsx`, and more via LibreOffice |
65
+ | **Smart table parsing** | Complex tables become clean Markdown tables |
66
+ | **Image extraction** | Embedded images are saved and referenced |
67
+ | **Header detection** | Font sizes map to `#` heading levels automatically |
68
+ | **Inline formatting** | Preserves **bold**, *italic*, and `code` |
69
+ | **Multi-column layouts** | Reconstructs natural reading order |
70
+ | **OCR fallback** | Handles scanned documents when text layer is missing |
71
+
72
+ ## Installation
73
+
74
+ ```bash
75
+ pip install git+https://github.com/erfan-ashtari/libmumd.git

+ ```
85
+
86
+ ## Quick Start
87
+
88

96
+ ```
97
+
98
+ ### Python
99
+
100
+ ```python
101
+ from libmumd import convert_file
102
+
103
+ # Basic usage
104
+ result = convert_file("document.pdf")
105
+ print(result)
106
+ # {'status': 'ok', 'chars': 4523, 'output': 'document.md'}
107
+
108
+ # Custom output path
109
+ result = convert_file("presentation.pptx", "slides.md")
110
+ ```
111
+
112
+ ## Supported Formats
113
+
114
+ | Format | Extensions | Conversion Method |
115
+ |--------|------------|-------------------|
116
+ | PDF | `.pdf` | PyMuPDF (native) |
117
+ | Word | `.docx`, `.doc` | LibreOffice |
118
+ | PowerPoint | `.pptx`, `.ppt` | LibreOffice |
119
+ | Excel | `.xlsx`, `.xls` | LibreOffice |
120
+ | OpenDocument | `.odt`, `.odp`, `.ods` | LibreOffice |
121
+ | Rich Text | `.rtf` | LibreOffice |
122
+ | Other | Any | markitdown fallback |
123
+
124
+ ## Requirements
125
+
126
+ ### Python Packages (Auto-installed)
127
+
128
+ - `pymupdf4llm` — PDF extraction engine
129
+ - `markitdown` — Fallback converter
130
+
131
+ ### LibreOffice (Required for Office Files)
132
+
133
+ LibreOffice is needed to convert Word, PowerPoint, and Excel files.
134
+
135
+ | OS | Installation |
136
+ |----|--------------|
137
+ | **Windows** | `winget install --id TheDocumentFoundation.LibreOffice` |
138
+ | **macOS** | `brew install --cask libreoffice` |
139
+ | **Linux** | `sudo apt-get install libreoffice` |
140
+
141
+ Or download from [libreoffice.org](https://www.libreoffice.org/).
142
+
143
+ > **Note:** PDF conversion works without LibreOffice. Only Office document conversion requires it.
144
+
145
+ ## Output Quality Comparison
146
+
147
+ | Aspect | markitdown only | libmumd |
148
+ |--------|-----------------|---------|
149
+ | Table formatting | Inconsistent | Clean Markdown tables |
150
+ | Multi-language | Basic | Full Unicode support |
151
+ | Layout preservation | None | Reading order preserved |
152
+ | Image handling | Limited | Extracted and referenced |
153
+ | Header detection | None | Automatic heading levels |
154
+
155
+ ## Persian (Farsi) & Arabic Support
156
+
157
+ libmumd is built with **Persian and Arabic documents in mind**:
158
+
159
+ - **RTL text handling** — Correctly processes right-to-left text
160
+ - **Persian typography** — Preserves proper character connections and diacritics
161
+ - **Mixed content** — Handles documents with both Persian/Arabic and English text
162
+ - **PDF extraction** — Extracts Persian text without garbling or losing characters
163
+ - **Font support** — Works with Persian fonts like IRANSans, Vazirmatn, and more
164
+
165
+ ```python
166
+ from libmumd import convert_file
167
+
168
+ # Convert a Persian PDF document
169
+ result = convert_file("persian-document.pdf")
170
+ # Output preserves RTL text and Persian characters correctly
171
+ ```

47
+ ## Why libmumd?
48
+
49
+ Most document converters produce messy output — broken tables, lost formatting, garbled non-English text. **libmumd** is different:
50
+
51
+ - **Persian & Arabic first-class support** — Correctly handles RTL text, Persian typography, and Arabic script
52
+ - **Better than markitdown alone** — Uses PyMuPDF's layout engine for cleaner, more accurate conversion
53
+ - **Multi-language support** — Handles Persian, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and European languages
54
+ - **Table detection** — Automatically converts complex tables to Markdown format
55
+ - **Figure & image handling** — Extracts and references images properly
56
+ - **Layout-aware** — Preserves reading order, headers, and document structure
57
+ - **No GPU required** — Runs on any machine with Python
58
+
59
+ ## Features
60
+
61
+ | Feature | Description |
62
+ |---------|-------------|
63
+ | **PDF → Markdown** | High-quality extraction with layout preservation |
64
+ | **Office → Markdown** | Convert `.docx`, `.pptx`, `.xlsx`, and more via LibreOffice |
65
+ | **Smart table parsing** | Complex tables become clean Markdown tables |
66
+ | **Image extraction** | Embedded images are saved and referenced |
67
+ | **Header detection** | Font sizes map to `#` heading levels automatically |
68
+ | **Inline formatting** | Preserves **bold**, *italic*, and `code` |
69
+ | **Multi-column layouts** | Reconstructs natural reading order |
70
+ | **OCR fallback** | Handles scanned documents when text layer is missing |
71
+
72
+ ## Installation
73
+
74
+ ```bash
75
+ pip install git+https://github.com/erfan-ashtari/libmumd.git
76
+ ```
77
+
78
+ Or install from source:
79
+
80
+ ```bash
81
+ git clone https://github.com/erfan-ashtari/libmumd.git
82
+ cd libmumd
83
+ pip install .
84
+ ```
85
+
86
+ ## Quick Start
87
+
88
+ ### Command Line
89
+
90
+ ```bash
91
+ # Convert PDF to Markdown
92
+ libmumd document.pdf
93
+
94
+ # Convert Office document
95
+ libmumd report.docx output.md
96
+ ```
97
+
98
+ ### Python
99
+
100
+ ```python
101
+ from libmumd import convert_file
102
+
103
+ # Basic usage
104
+ result = convert_file("document.pdf")
105
+ print(result)
106
+ # {'status': 'ok', 'chars': 4523, 'output': 'document.md'}
107
+
108
+ # Custom output path
109
+ result = convert_file("presentation.pptx", "slides.md")
110
+ ```
111
+
112
+ ## Supported Formats
113
+
114
+ | Format | Extensions | Conversion Method |
115
+ |--------|------------|-------------------|
116
+ | PDF | `.pdf` | PyMuPDF (native) |
117
+ | Word | `.docx`, `.doc` | LibreOffice |
118
+ | PowerPoint | `.pptx`, `.ppt` | LibreOffice |
119
+ | Excel | `.xlsx`, `.xls` | LibreOffice |
120
+ | OpenDocument | `.odt`, `.odp`, `.ods` | LibreOffice |
121
+ | Rich Text | `.rtf` | LibreOffice |
122
+ | Other | Any | markitdown fallback |
123
+
124
+ ## Requirements
125
+
126
+ ### Python Packages (Auto-installed)
127
+
128
+ - `pymupdf4llm` — PDF extraction engine
129
+ - `markitdown` — Fallback converter
130
+
131
+ ### LibreOffice (Required for Office Files)
132
+
133
+ LibreOffice is needed to convert Word, PowerPoint, and Excel files.
134
+
135
+ | OS | Installation |
136
+ |----|--------------|
137
+ | **Windows** | `winget install --id TheDocumentFoundation.LibreOffice` |
138
+ | **macOS** | `brew install --cask libreoffice` |
139
+ | **Linux** | `sudo apt-get install libreoffice` |
140
+
141
+ Or download from [libreoffice.org](https://www.libreoffice.org/).
142
+
143
+ > **Note:** PDF conversion works without LibreOffice. Only Office document conversion requires it.
144
+
145
+ ## Output Quality Comparison
146
+
147
+ | Aspect | markitdown only | libmumd |
148
+ |--------|-----------------|---------|
149
+ | Table formatting | Inconsistent | Clean Markdown tables |
150
+ | Multi-language | Basic | Full Unicode support |
151
+ | Layout preservation | None | Reading order preserved |
152
+ | Image handling | Limited | Extracted and referenced |
153
+ | Header detection | None | Automatic heading levels |
154
+
155
+ ## Persian (Farsi) & Arabic Support
156
+
157
+ libmumd is built with **Persian and Arabic documents in mind**:
158
+
159
+ - **RTL text handling** — Correctly processes right-to-left text
160
+ - **Persian typography** — Preserves proper character connections and diacritics
161
+ - **Mixed content** — Handles documents with both Persian/Arabic and English text
162
+ - **PDF extraction** — Extracts Persian text without garbling or losing characters
163
+ - **Font support** — Works with Persian fonts like IRANSans, Vazirmatn, and more
164
+
165
+ ```python
166
+ from libmumd import convert_file
167
+
168
+ # Convert a Persian PDF document
169
+ result = convert_file("persian-document.pdf")
170
+ # Output preserves RTL text and Persian characters correctly
171
+ ```
