Pretty solid. Used it to extract structured text from OCR documents with formatting preserved and its default markdown output did a tremendous job, even with some noise present in the document!

Does it do table well? I like deepseek ocr have you compared it to it?

I've just tested the BF16 on handwritten, rather difficult handwriting, even for a person. Impressive. Very good

Such a small model! I’ll have to take a look… gut feel is how can it compare…
