+ # PDFluent PDF Document Layout Ground Truth Dataset
44
 
45
+ Block-level layout annotations for born-digital PDFs (headings, paragraphs, tables, reading order) with LaTeX formulas and scan pages. For researchers and developers building document parsing, RAG tools, and LLM pipelines. Made by the team behind PDFluent SDK 1.3.0, which scores the highest overall on opendataloader-bench of the engines on its public leaderboard*.
46
 
47
+ \* Measured with the benchmark's own harness and evaluator on its 200 documents, PDFluent SDK 1.3.0, `quality="auto"` with `keep_furniture=True`, on Linux (CPU only), 29 October 2026: 0.9168 overall against 0.907 for opendataloader [hybrid], 0.885 for nutrient and 0.882 for docling. Competitor figures are taken from the benchmark's public README (read 2 November 2026), not re-run by us (our own re-run of opendataloader [hybrid] on 28 October 2026 gave 0.9068). PDFluent is not on that leaderboard; the results are submitted in a pull request: https://github.com/opendataloader-project/opendataloader-bench/pull/37. Development was optimised for this benchmark among its targets. The scores are measured on the benchmark's own 200 documents. The 19-measure result on our own held-out half and the separate checks are on pdfluent.com/benchmarks. The scores come from a release candidate wheel of 1.3.0 that reported version 1.2.0. Speed is not published. The run keeps page headers and footers, because the benchmark's ground truth counts them as content. The difference is one run without a confidence interval.

+ ## Licence in plain words
133
+
134
+ Default config uses our CC BY 4.0 annotations (credit line: Innovation Trigger B.V., PDFluent ground-truth annotations (2026)). Third-party scans follow CDLA-Permissive-1.0 terms. Share-alike config requires CC BY-SA 4.0 for derivatives.

138
