What the publisher says
From the docling.rs repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
docling.rs
docling.rs converts documents — PDF, Office, HTML, scans, audio — into Markdown, docling JSON and the other shapes an LLM or a RAG pipeline can read. It is a Rust port of IBM's docling: the same output, byte-for-byte, from one static binary. No Python, no PyTorch.
Pulling text out of a PDF is easy. Keeping its structure — headings in order, tables as tables, scanned pages read — takes layout analysis, table recognition and OCR. docling has the models for that, and a Python stack to match. docling.rs runs the same models from a single binary: PDF 4.3× faster than Python docling at under half the RAM, Office and HTML 20–60× faster, and tables that survive — cell recall 0.94 where MarkItDown gets 0.31 (numbers, method).
Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docling-project/docling.rs/master/scripts/install/install.sh | bash
docling-rs example.pdf # Markdown on stdout
# or from crates.io; --cli puts the models where the installed binary looks
cargo install docling-cli
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docling-project/docling.rs/master/scripts/install/download_dependencies.sh | sh -s -- --cli
pip install docling-rs # Python — drop-in for docling's and MarkItDown's APIs
npm install docling.rs # Node.js / Bun
cargo add docling # Rust library
# containers, models baked in (-cuda variants for NVIDIA)
