Table conversion #353

Description

@EasyLOB

Hi,

I am testing pdf-inspector as a replacement for Docling.
It's really nice and much faster than Docling :-)

But the table conversion has some issues.
I would like to know if there is any way to improve it ? Any command-line parameter ?

I am using a simple python code to convert.
Attached you find a pdf file and the converted md file - take a look at page 26 , item 2.2, of the pdf file.
Docling generates a perfect table, but pdf-inspector does not.

Thanks

    @EasyLOB I created a PR #512 to resolve this issue.

    I realized many tables broken when converted to markdown.

    Here's the converted markdown for your example above: Manual BC-5150-with-fix.pdf.md

    I saw many improvements with this update.

    Could you confirm if it's good or any other improvements are needed, please?

    Thank you!
