Recently tested a (non-english) pdf ocr with Gemini 2.5 Pro.
First, directly ask it to extract text from pdf. Result: random text blob, not useable.
Second, I converted pdf into pages of jpg. Gemini performed exceptional. Near perfect text extraction with intact format in markdown.
Maybe there's internal difference when processing pdf vs jpg inside the model.
