- **Structure Preservation** It extracts images, image descriptions, tables, and table titles.
- **Formula Conversion** Recognizes tables and converts them to LaTeX or HTML format.
- **OCR Support** Supports multiple output formats and various visualization results.
- **GPU and CPU Compatibility**: Works on both CPU and GPU environments, compatible with Windows, Linux, and Mac.

Dolphin is a smart AI tool that can analyze and understand complex document images, like pages with text, tables, formulas, and pictures. It works in two steps: first, it figures out the layout and reading order of the page; then, it quickly parses each element using special prompts. This makes it fast and accurate for turning document images into structured data like JSON or Markdown. You can use pre-trained models and easy code to process single pages, PDFs, or specific elements. This helps you save time and effort when extracting information from complicated documents efficiently.
