Hello,

I am using PDF Extract API to try and extract data from tables.

It works well with standard tables but when it comes to complex tables, specifically nested tables, there is data loss.

Has anyone experienced similar issues or could provide suggestions on how to improve extraction accuracy for nested tables?

Thank you!

Hmm. So, when I extract this, I get one table. The XLSX file shows the main table, with the sub tables in it. To me... this is right. It is one table that is complex, but the data is there. I can also see all the table cells in the JSON. What data, specifically, is being lost? (Using samplePDF.pdf)
