Extract text, tables, images, and metadata from 90+ file formats and 300+ programming languages including PDF, Office documents, and images. Android library (AAR) with bundled jniLibs/arm64-v8a and jniLibs/x86_64 — Gradle automatically picks up the native cdylib for emulator and device builds. Server-side Kotlin/JVM consumers can use the Java binding directly via standard Kotlin/Java interop.

## What This Package Provides

- **Document intelligence core** — extract text, tables, images, metadata, entities, keywords, and code intelligence from one API.
- **Format coverage** — PDF, Office, images, HTML/XML, email, archives, notebooks, citations, scientific formats, and plain text.
- **OCR choices** — Tesseract, PaddleOCR, EasyOCR where supported, VLM OCR through liter-llm, and plugin hooks for custom backends.
- **Same engine as every binding** — Rust, Python, Node.js, Go, Java, PHP, Ruby, .NET, Elixir, R, WASM, Kotlin Android, Swift, Dart, Zig, and C FFI share the same Rust implementation.
- **Android AAR** — JNI-backed package for mobile extraction workloads.

Extract text, metadata, and structure from any supported document format:

<!-- snippet not found: api/extract_file_sync.md -->

### Common Use Cases

#### Extract with Custom Configuration

Most use cases benefit from configuration to control extraction behavior:

**With OCR (for scanned documents):**

<!-- snippet not found: ocr/ocr_extraction.md -->

#### Table Extraction

See [Configuration Guide](https://docs.kreuzberg.dev/guides/configuration/) for table extraction options.

#### Processing Multiple Files

<!-- snippet not found: api/batch_extract_files_sync.md -->

#### Async Processing

For non-blocking document processing:
