PaddleOCR is the ultra-lightweight, high-performance OCR toolkit: it converts images and PDFs into structured data with industry-leading accuracy and supports over 100 languages.

PaddleOCR is a high-performance, deep learning-based OCR framework, providing a comprehensive toolkit for text detection and recognition. The system features flagship models like PP-OCRv5, which delivers superior accuracy and supports over 100 languages, including Simplified Chinese, English, and Japanese. It is engineered for deployment flexibility, offering ultra-lightweight models for mobile and edge devices, alongside server-side models for high-accuracy tasks. Advanced pipelines, such as PP-StructureV3, intelligently convert complex documents (images, PDFs) into structured JSON and Markdown formats, establishing PaddleOCR as the premier solution for building intelligent document applications.
