128
+ the conditions stated in this License.
129
+
130
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
131
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
132
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
133
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.

136
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.

+
138
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade

141
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.

+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
144
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
145
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
146
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
147
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
148
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
149
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
150
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
151
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
152
+
153
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
154
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
155
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
156
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
157
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
158
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
159
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
160
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
161
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
162
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
163
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
164
+
165
+ 9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
166
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
167
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
168
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
169
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
170
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
171
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
172
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
173
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
174
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

176
+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

178
+ APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
179

66
+
67
+ `--text-mode nougat` (the default) auto-detects and uses a CUDA GPU when one is available (`torch.cuda.is_available()`) — no flags or code changes needed. **The catch:** a plain `pip install visual-parser` (or `pip install torch`) resolves to PyPI's default **CPU-only** torch wheel, even on a machine with a real GPU. To actually get GPU acceleration, install the matching CUDA build from PyTorch's own index instead, e.g.:
68
+
69
+ ```bash
70
+ pip install torch --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu126
71
+ ```
72
+
73
+ (pick the CUDA tag matching your driver — see [pytorch.org/get-started](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/)). Installing `visual-parser` again afterward won't silently downgrade this back to CPU, since the exact version you already have satisfies its own dependency requirement. Verify with:
74
+
75
+ ```bash
76
+ python -c "import torch; print(torch.cuda.is_available(), torch.cuda.get_device_name(0) if torch.cuda.is_available() else None)"

It was originally extracted from [RADIANT-LLM](https://github.com/SmartLabNuclear/RADIANT_LLM) — born out of the need for a fast, standalone PDF-ingestion path independent of any chatbot.

+ ## GPU support
22

23
+ `--text-mode nougat` (the default) auto-detects and uses a CUDA GPU when one is available (`torch.cuda.is_available()`) — no flags or code changes needed. **The catch:** a plain `pip install visual-parser` (or `pip install torch`) resolves to PyPI's default **CPU-only** torch wheel, even on a machine with a real GPU. To actually get GPU acceleration, install the matching CUDA build from PyTorch's own index instead, e.g.:
24
+
25
+ ```bash
26
+ pip install torch --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu126
27
+ ```
28
+
29
+ (pick the CUDA tag matching your driver — see [pytorch.org/get-started](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/)). Installing `visual-parser` again afterward won't silently downgrade this back to CPU, since the exact version you already have satisfies its own dependency requirement. Verify with:
30
+
31
+ ```bash
32
+ python -c "import torch; print(torch.cuda.is_available(), torch.cuda.get_device_name(0) if torch.cuda.is_available() else None)"
