document-processing Specification Delta

ADDED Requirements

Requirement: Table Cell Merging Detection

The system SHALL correctly detect and preserve merged cells (rowspan/colspan) when extracting tables from PDF documents.

Scenario: Detect merged cells in Direct Track

  • WHEN extracting tables from an editable PDF using Direct Track
  • THEN the system SHALL use PyMuPDF find_tables() API
  • AND correctly identify cells with rowspan > 1 or colspan > 1
  • AND preserve merge information in UnifiedDocument table structure
  • AND skip placeholder cells that are covered by merged cells

Scenario: Handle complex table structures

  • WHEN processing a table with mixed merged and regular cells (e.g., edit3.pdf with 83 cells including 121 merges)
  • THEN the system SHALL NOT split merged cells into individual cells
  • AND the output cell count SHALL match the actual visual cell count
  • AND the rendered PDF SHALL display correct merged cell boundaries

Requirement: Visual Element Path Preservation

The system SHALL preserve image paths for all visual element types during OCR conversion.

Scenario: Preserve CHART element paths

  • WHEN converting PP-StructureV3 output containing CHART elements
  • THEN the system SHALL treat CHART as a visual element type
  • AND extract saved_path from the element data
  • AND include saved_path in the UnifiedDocument content field

Scenario: Support all visual element types

  • WHEN processing visual elements of types IMAGE, FIGURE, CHART, DIAGRAM, LOGO, or STAMP
  • THEN the system SHALL extract saved_path or img_path for each element
  • AND preserve path, width, height, and format in content dictionary
  • AND enable downstream PDF generation to embed these images

Scenario: Fallback path resolution

  • WHEN a visual element has multiple path fields (saved_path, img_path)
  • THEN the system SHALL prefer saved_path over img_path
  • AND fallback to img_path if saved_path is missing
  • AND log warning if both paths are missing

Requirement: Cell Box Coordinate Validation

The system SHALL validate cell box coordinates from PP-StructureV3 and handle out-of-bounds cases.

Scenario: Detect out-of-bounds coordinates

  • WHEN processing cell_boxes from PP-StructureV3
  • THEN the system SHALL validate each coordinate against page boundaries (0, 0, page_width, page_height)
  • AND log tables with coordinates exceeding page bounds
  • AND mark affected cells for fallback processing

Scenario: Apply CV line detection fallback

  • WHEN cell_boxes coordinates are invalid (out of bounds)
  • THEN the system SHALL apply OpenCV line detection as fallback
  • AND reconstruct table structure from detected lines
  • AND include fallback_used flag in table metadata

Scenario: Coordinate normalization

  • WHEN coordinates are within page bounds but slightly outside table bbox
  • THEN the system SHALL clamp coordinates to table boundaries
  • AND preserve relative cell positions
  • AND ensure no cells overlap after normalization

Requirement: Decoration Image Filtering

The system SHALL filter out minimal decoration images that do not contribute meaningful content.

Scenario: Filter tiny images by area

  • WHEN extracting images from a document
  • THEN the system SHALL calculate image area (width x height)
  • AND filter out images with area < 200 square pixels
  • AND log filtered image count for debugging

Scenario: Configurable filtering threshold

  • WHEN processing documents with intentionally small images
  • THEN the system SHALL support configuration of minimum image area threshold
  • AND default to 200 square pixels if not specified
  • AND allow threshold = 0 to disable filtering

Requirement: Covering Image Removal

The system SHALL remove covering/redaction images from the final output.

Scenario: Detect covering rectangles

  • WHEN preprocessing a PDF page
  • THEN the system SHALL detect black/white rectangles covering text regions
  • AND identify covering images by high IoU (> 0.8) with underlying content
  • AND mark covering images for exclusion

Scenario: Exclude covering images from rendering

  • WHEN generating output PDF
  • THEN the system SHALL exclude images marked as covering
  • AND preserve the text content that was covered
  • AND include covering_images_removed count in metadata

Scenario: Handle both black and white covering

  • WHEN detecting covering rectangles
  • THEN the system SHALL detect both black fill (redaction style)
  • AND white fill (whiteout style)
  • AND low-contrast rectangles intended to hide content

MODIFIED Requirements

Requirement: Enhanced OCR with Full PP-StructureV3

The system SHALL utilize the full capabilities of PP-StructureV3, extracting all 23 element types from parsing_res_list, with proper handling of visual elements and table coordinates.

Scenario: Extract comprehensive document structure

  • WHEN processing through OCR track
  • THEN the system SHALL use page_result.json['parsing_res_list']
  • AND extract all element types including headers, lists, tables, figures
  • AND preserve layout_bbox coordinates for each element

Scenario: Maintain reading order

  • WHEN extracting elements from PP-StructureV3
  • THEN the system SHALL preserve the reading order from parsing_res_list
  • AND assign sequential indices to elements
  • AND support reordering for complex layouts

Scenario: Extract table structure

  • WHEN PP-StructureV3 identifies a table
  • THEN the system SHALL extract cell content and boundaries
  • AND validate cell_boxes coordinates against page boundaries
  • AND apply fallback detection for invalid coordinates
  • AND preserve table HTML for structure
  • AND extract plain text for translation

Scenario: Extract visual elements with paths

  • WHEN PP-StructureV3 identifies visual elements (IMAGE, FIGURE, CHART, DIAGRAM)
  • THEN the system SHALL preserve saved_path for each element
  • AND include image dimensions and format
  • AND enable image embedding in output PDF

ADDED Requirements

Requirement: Generate UnifiedDocument from direct extraction

The system SHALL convert PyMuPDF results to UnifiedDocument with correct table cell merging.

Scenario: Extract tables with cell merging

  • WHEN direct extraction encounters a table
  • THEN the system SHALL use PyMuPDF find_tables() API
  • AND extract cell content with correct rowspan/colspan
  • AND preserve merged cell boundaries
  • AND skip placeholder cells covered by merges

Scenario: Filter decoration images

  • WHEN extracting images from PDF
  • THEN the system SHALL filter images smaller than minimum area threshold
  • AND exclude covering/redaction images
  • AND preserve meaningful content images

Scenario: Preserve text styling with image handling

  • WHEN direct extraction completes
  • THEN the system SHALL convert PyMuPDF results to UnifiedDocument
  • AND preserve text styling, fonts, and exact positioning
  • AND extract tables with cell boundaries, content, and merge info
  • AND include only meaningful images in output
