Installation and Platform Support
Overview
olmOCR is a vision-language-model-based OCR pipeline that can be run either against a local NVIDIA GPU or against any remote OpenAI-API-compatible inference server. Installation is split into two tiers — a lightweight CPU-only install for remote-server use, and a heavier install that pulls in PyTorch, vLLM, and other GPU dependencies for local inference. The project is officially tuned for Linux + NVIDIA GPUs; community discussions show that macOS, ROCm, and Windows paths exist but are not first-class supported. Source: README.md
System Dependencies
olmOCR renders PDF pages to images before sending them to the VLM, which requires a working poppler-utils install plus several TrueType font packages so that rendered glyphs look correct. The README specifies the Ubuntu/Debian install line:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install poppler-utils ttf-mscorefonts-installer msttcorefonts \
fonts-crosextra-caladea fonts-crosextra-carlito gsfonts lcdf-typetools
Source: README.md
On non-Ubuntu systems the user is expected to translate this list to the equivalent platform package manager. Skipping the font packages is a common cause of degraded OCR output on documents that use Caladea, Carlito, MS Core Fonts, or other non-default faces.
Python Installation
The project explicitly recommends installing into a fresh Conda environment because the local-GPU dependency set (PyTorch, flash-attn, vLLM) is fragile in pre-existing environments. Source: README.md
conda create -n olmocr python=3.11
conda activate olmocr
Python 3.11 is the version called out in the README. After activation, the user picks one of two pip install options:
| Option | Command | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| Remote inference only | pip install olmocr | You have a vLLM / OpenAI-API server running elsewhere. Avoids the ~2 GB+ of GPU dependencies. |
| Local GPU inference | pip install olmocr[gpu] (or the full pip install . per the README) | You want olmOCR to spawn a local vLLM instance. Requires a recent NVIDIA GPU. |
Source: README.md
The optional extras groups are also relevant for downstream workflows:
[train]— extra packages required by the RLVR training pipeline documented inolmocr/train/README.md. That README additionally pinstransformers==4.52.4andflash-attn>=2.8.0.post2 --no-build-isolation. Source: olmocr/train/README.md[bench]— used to runpython -m olmocr.bench.benchmark. Community issue #452 reports thatnumpywas missing from this group and had to be installed manually, so users hittingModuleNotFoundError: numpyon first run shouldpip install numpyexplicitly. Source: olmocr/bench/README.md

Platforms beyond this are community-driven:
- macOS / Apple Silicon. Issue #33 has 28 comments requesting official support. As of release v0.4.27 there is no first-class macOS install path; the recommended workaround is the remote-server install against a vLLM endpoint running on Linux. Source: community context, issue #33.
- AMD ROCm. Issue #111 documents users attempting a 7900 XTX / ROCm install hitting OOM in vLLM and empty responses from a GGUF/ollama fallback. Source: community context, issue #111.
- Windows. The CLI works under Windows 11 + Conda + Python 3.11, but issue #459 shows that the default Windows console codepage is
gbkand corrupts non-ASCII output. The accepted workaround in that thread is to setPYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8and runchcp 65001from PowerShell before launching olmOCR. Source: community context, issue #459.
The training stack documented in olmocr/train/README.md is explicitly specialized to an 8×H100 Beaker cluster and is not expected to work elsewhere without modification. Source: olmocr/train/README.md
Docker and Common Installation Pitfalls
For users who do not want to manage the system dependencies by hand, a Dockerfile and a Dockerfile.with-model variant are shipped at the repository root. The with-model image bundles the allenai/olmOCR-2-7B-1025-FP8 weights so that the container can run local inference out of the box. Community issue #161 also provides a community-maintained CUDA 12.1 / Ubuntu 22.04 Dockerfile for users who want a known-good base. Source: Dockerfile, Dockerfile.with-model; community context, issue #161.
The most common first-run failures, drawn from the issue tracker and the in-repo docs, are:
- Missing
poppler-utilsor fonts — pages render as boxes or with missing glyphs; install the apt packages listed above. - Wrong Python environment — PyTorch or flash-attn wheels installed into a non-3.11 env cause opaque import errors; recreate the conda env.
numpy/ missing[bench]extras — covered in issue #452.- Malformed CLI help string — issue #451 documents
argparseraising on--helpunder Python 3.14, so use Python 3.11 for now. Source: community context, issue #451. - HTTP client timeout in server runner —
olmocr/bench/runners/run_server.pydefaults to 300 s, which is too short for slow endpoints; issue #455 tracks a request to make this configurable. Source: community context, issue #455.

Pipeline and Inference Modes
The olmOCR pipeline (olmocr/pipeline.py) is the central batch inference system that converts millions of PDF pages into structured Markdown using a fine-tuned vision-language model. It is invoked either as python -m olmocr.pipeline <workspace> ... or simply olmocr <workspace> ..., and exposes a single CLI surface that fans out into several execution and inference backends. The pipeline's responsibility spans PDF ingestion, page-group scheduling, model dispatch (local or remote), retry handling, and writing Dolma-compatible output plus optional Markdown files Source: [olmocr/pipeline.py:1-50] Source: [README.md].
Pipeline Responsibilities and Workspace Layout
A pipeline run is anchored to a single workspace argument — a local folder or an s3://bucket/prefix/ path. The workspace stores the work queue, partial results, and the final Dolma-format files (results/*.jsonl.gz) preserving the input PDF folder structure. The pipeline is described as a "Manager for running millions of PDFs through a batch inference pipeline" in its top-level help text Source: [README.md].
Key behaviors of the workspace:
- Acts as a work queue when running on S3, allowing multiple worker nodes to coordinate via shared prefixes Source: [olmocr/work_queue.py:1-80] Source: [olmocr/s3_utils.py:1-120] .
- Local workspaces behave identically, but contention is serialized at the filesystem level.
- Pages are grouped (
--pages_per_group, default small batch) and each group is dispatched independently. Failed groups are retried (--max_page_retries) and a configurable error budget (--max_page_error_rate) terminates the run when exceeded Source: [olmocr/pipeline.py:100-180] . - When
--markdownis passed, an additionalmarkdown/folder is populated with human-readable outputs alongside the Dolma JSONL stream Source: [README.md].
Local vLLM Inference Mode
In the default mode, the pipeline spawns a local vLLM server and runs inference in-process. This requires the GPU-enabled install (pip install olmocr[gpu] --find-links https://flashinfer.ai/whl/cu124/torch2.4/flashinfer/) and exposes a number of vLLM passthrough arguments Source: [olmocr/pipeline.py:200-260] Source: [README.md].
Notable local-mode flags include:
| Flag | Purpose |
|---|---|
--model | Path or HF repo id (default allenai/olmOCR-7B-0725-FP8) |
--gpu-memory-utilization | Fraction of VRAM allocated to KV-cache (forwarded to vllm serve) |
--max_model_len | Upper bound on KV-cache tokens; lower it if vLLM fails to start |
--tensor-parallel-size / -tp | Tensor parallel degree for vLLM |
--data-parallel-size / -dp | Data parallel degree |
--port | Port for the local vLLM server |
--apply_filter | Runs an additional quality filter pass on the parsed output |
--guided_decoding | Enables guided decoding for YAML-typed model outputs |
The pipeline also controls how PDF pages are rendered before being sent to the model: --target_longest_image_dim controls the rendered image size and --target_anchor_text_len caps the amount of anchor text used (legacy models only) Source: [README.md].
Remote Inference Server Mode (OpenAI-Compatible)
A second mode targets external vLLM servers, DeepInfra, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. In this mode the pipeline skips spawning a local vLLM instance and simply issues chat-completions requests over HTTP. This works with the lightweight pip install olmocr install (no GPU dependencies) Source: [olmocr/pipeline.py:300-360] Source: [README.md].
Key arguments for remote/server mode:
--server: URL of an external vLLM or compatible server, e.g.http://remote-host:8000/v1. When set, the pipeline does not start a local server.--api_key: Bearer token passed viaAuthorizationheader.--max_concurrent_requests: Caps in-flight HTTP requests to the provider.--workers: Limits page groups processed simultaneously; setting to1ensures one group finishes before the next starts — useful for providers with low concurrency caps.--pages_per_group: Smaller groups help on providers with strict concurrent-request ceilings.--model: Model identifier (provider-specific; e.g.allenai/olmOCR-2-7B-1025on DeepInfra).
Example invocation: olmocr ./localworkspace --server http://remote-server:8000/v1 --model allenai/olmOCR-2-7B-1025-FP8 --markdown --pdfs *.pdf Source: [README.md].
Multi-Node / Beaker Cluster Mode
For very large jobs, the pipeline can coordinate multiple workers against an S3-backed workspace. The first worker seeds the queue: olmocr s3://my_s3_bucket/pdfworkspaces/exampleworkspace --pdfs s3://my_s3_bucket/jakep/gnarly_pdfs/*.pdf. Subsequent workers simply point at the same prefix and pull from the shared queue Source: [olmocr/work_queue.py:80-180] Source: [olmocr/s3_utils.py:120-220] Source: [README.md].
Alternatively, the pipeline can be submitted directly to Beaker with --beaker, --beaker_workspace, --beaker_cluster, --beaker_gpus, and --beaker_priority. This path is documented as the standard way to run multi-node jobs at AI2 Source: [README.md].

Several issues trace directly back to pipeline/inference behavior:
- Empty Markdown output on specific PDFs (issue #463): the pipeline reports success and writes the markdown file but the body is empty, indicating model output failed validation for that page rather than a crash Source: [issue #463].
- Encoding errors when writing Markdown (issue #459): Windows + GBK locale cannot encode certain Unicode codepoints emitted by the model. Setting
PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8orchcp 65001before launching the pipeline resolves it Source: [issue #459]. - Hard-coded 300s timeout in server runner (issue #455): the bench HTTP client in
olmocr/bench/runners/run_server.pyuses a fixed timeout, which is insufficient for some larger page groups; community has requested making it configurable Source: [issue #455]. - DeepInfra model deprecation (issue #460):
allenai/olmOCR-2-7B-1025is scheduled for deprecation on DeepInfra on 2026-05-07; users running the remote mode should plan for a self-hosted vLLM endpoint Source: [issue #460].
A known release-line note: v0.4.27 fixed a "queue bug in long queues" relevant to S3-coordinated multi-node runs, so users on older versions should upgrade before scaling out Source: [release v0.4.27].

Benchmark Suite and OCR Evaluation
Purpose and Scope
olmOCR-Bench is the project's machine-checkable evaluation harness for document-level OCR systems. It does not rely on edit distance or fuzzy text similarity; instead it asserts discrete, hand-authored "facts" about each PDF page and grades whether an OCR pipeline recovered them. The design intent, stated in the bench README, is that every test case should be "very simple, unambiguous, and machine-checkable, similar to a unit test" so that alternate-but-correct transcriptions are not penalized.
Source: olmocr/bench/README.md
The benchmark operates on single-page PDFs so that digital metadata is preserved, and accepts Markdown or plain-text output from any OCR tool. This deliberately decouples evaluation from any specific engine, allowing third-party OCR pipelines (Marker, MinerU, Mistral OCR API, DeepSeek-OCR, etc.) to be ranked on the same scoreboard published in the project root README.md.
Document Types and Test Categories
The suite defines seven categories that historically challenge OCR systems. Each category is sourced via a different acquisition strategy documented in olmocr/bench/README.md:
| Category | Code | Source strategy |
|---|---|---|
| arXiv Math | AR | Single-TeX-source arXiv math papers, validated with KaTeX |
| Old Scans Math | OSM | Public-domain math textbooks from the Internet Archive, manually annotated |
| Tables | TA | Internally crawled PDFs filtered for tables with Gemini-Flash-2.0 |
| Old Scans | OS | Library of Congress letters with existing transcriptions |
| Headers & Footers | HF | DocLayout-YOLO "abandon" regions; tests expect text to be absent |
| Multi Column | MC | Claude-Sonnet-3.7 HTML renders of multi-article pages |
| Long Tiny Text | LTT | Dense small-print archive pages (dictionaries, references) |
Tests are stored as JSONL files in the bench_data/ directory of the dataset (allenai/olmOCR-bench on Hugging Face). The header/footer category is unique in that it asserts a string must *not* appear in the linearized output, since correctly excluding recurring page furniture is a strong signal of OCR quality.
Benchmark Principles and Scoring
The README enumerates rules that shape how candidate outputs are scored. These are worth understanding before debugging a low score:
- Output is treated as plain-text Unicode in a natural reading order; Markdown syntax is ignored when matching (so
enlightenmentstill matchesenlightenment). - Matching is not position-sensitive, except for header/footer tests, which constrain search to the first or last N characters.
- Tables may be Markdown or HTML
<table>; math must be delimited by$,$$,\(, or\[and must render with KaTeX. - All Unicode is normalized to NFC; hyphens, single quotes, and double quotes are folded to ASCII variants before comparison.
- Each test belongs to one of the seven categories plus a "Base" category used for sanity checks.
The actual scoring logic lives in TextPresenceTest.run and related classes inside olmocr/bench/tests.py. As reported in issue #461, partial_ratio from RapidFuzz can produce false positives when the candidate md_content is much shorter than the queried text (e.g., a single \n), because the partial ratio then compares against a near-empty string. Patches to the test logic must guard against this degenerate case.
Running the Benchmark
A typical run follows the recipe documented in the bench README:
# 1. Install GPU extras for local inference
pip install olmocr[gpu] --find-links https://flashinfer.ai/whl/cu124/torch2.4/flashinfer/
# 2. Convert benchmark PDFs into model output using a runner
python -m olmocr.bench.convert olmocr_pipeline --dir ./olmOCR-bench/bench_data
# 3. Score the outputs
python -m olmocr.bench.benchmark --dir ./olmOCR-bench/bench_data
Two runners are shipped under olmocr/bench/runners/:
run_olmocr_pipeline.pyinvokes the localolmocr.pipelineto render each PDF into Markdown inside a workspace directory. The helperolmocr/bench/scripts/workspace_to_bench.pythen copies those outputs into the directory layout the grader expects.run_server.pyposts the PDFs to an OpenAI-compatible endpoint (local vLLM, DeepInfra, or any compatible API). Issue #455 tracks a feature request to expose a configurable HTTP timeout, since the current default of 300 seconds is insufficient for slow backends or large pages.
The CLI entry point in olmocr/bench/benchmark.py has surfaced at least two regressions: a malformed argparse help string (issue #451) and a missing numpy import in the [bench] extras (issue #452). Install the dependency with pip install numpy if the benchmark entry point raises ModuleNotFoundError immediately on launch.
For annotation review, the README points to an internal tool:
python -m olmocr.bench.review_app --port 5000 --debug \
./olmOCR-bench/bench_data/multi_column.jsonl --force
Common Failure Modes Seen by Users
The community has filed several reports that intersect with the benchmark workflow:
- Empty markdown output for a specific page. Running
olmocr output/ --pdfs bench_data/pdfs/headers_footers/<hash>_page_3.pdf --model /root/olmOCR-2-7B-1025-FP8/ --markdownproduced an empty Markdown file (issue #463). Because header/footer tests assert *absence*, an empty candidate actually scores well on HF tests but fails Base and content-bearing categories, which is a useful diagnostic signal. - GBK encoding crash on Windows. Issue #459 describes a
'gbk' codec can't encode character '\u1eca'error during Markdown writing. SettingPYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8(orchcp 65001in PowerShell) before invoking the pipeline resolves the failure when running under the default Windows codepage. - DeepInfra deprecation. Issue #460 notes that the hosted
allenai/olmOCR-2-7B-1025snapshot will be retired on 2026-05-07. Users scoring against the server runner should pin to a self-hosted model or migrate to the new release. - Scoring inversion for near-empty candidates. As noted above, issue #461 reports that
TextPresenceTest.runin olmocr/bench/tests.py can invert its decision when the candidate collapses to whitespace. When investigating "all tests pass" results for a broken page, check the candidate file directly.
Integration with Training
The same JSONL schema is reused inside the GRPO trainer. Per olmocr/train/README.md, mine_html_templates.py synthesizes additional benchmark-style cases (olmocr-synthmix-1025), and the trainer script accepts a --reward_bench weight so that bench-style presence/absence tests participate directly in the reinforcement-learning reward signal. This is the mechanism behind the v0.4.0 release's ~4-point jump on the published scoreboard, where the strongest olmOCR release (v0.4.0) reaches an Overall score of 82.4±1.1.

Model Training, Filtering, and Synthetic Data
Overview
olmOCR's model training, filtering, and synthetic data pipeline is the machinery that produces fine-tuned OCR models such as allenai/olmOCR-2-7B-1025-FP8 (referenced in README.md). The pipeline combines three concerns:
- Training — supervised fine-tuning and GRPO-based reinforcement learning on PDF/markdown pairs, orchestrated in olmocr/train/.
- Filtering and data preparation — converting raw PDFs and human/LLM-generated markdown into the single-page layout that the trainer consumes, handled in olmocr/data/.
- Synthetic data — generating additional training examples from HTML templates to bolster coverage of hard document types, handled in olmocr/synth/.
The README frames the broader workflow as: "Processing millions of PDFs through a finetuned model using VLLM" via olmocr/pipeline.py, and a "Filtering language identification" helper, both of which feed back into the next training round.

The training stack lives under olmocr/train/ and exposes two entry points:
train.py— supervised fine-tuning, described in olmocr/train/README.md.grpo_train.py— reinforcement learning with unit-test rewards (see olmocr2 bibtex entry in README.md, titled "olmOCR 2: Unit Test Rewards for Document OCR").
Environment and dependencies
Training extends the base install with the [train] extra plus pinned versions:
pip install .[train]
pip install transformers==4.52.4
pip install flash-attn>=2.8.0.post2 --no-build-isolation
Source: olmocr/train/README.md:21-25.
Hardware layout
The training guide states the run is "performed on an 8xH100 GPU node. One GPU is dedicated to running VLLM, while the other 7 are used to run training." Because the harness splits one GPU off for vLLm-based generation, a single H100 node is the minimum viable target, which is why community members have asked for macOS and ROCm support (issues #33 and #111).
GRPO hyperparameters
The provided training script (scripts/train/grpotrainer-beaker-multi-gpu-augusta.sh, as quoted in the training README) configures the run with the following key parameters, surfaced as flags on grpo_train.py:
| Flag | Example value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
--reward_bench | 1.0 | Weight for olmOCR-bench unit-test reward |
--reward_front_matter | 1.0 | Weight for YAML front-matter validity |
--reward_eos | 1.0 | Weight for proper end-of-sequence behavior |
--beta | 0.01 | KL penalty in GRPO objective |
--learning_rate | 2e-6 | Optimizer learning rate |
--gradient_accumulation_steps | 28 | Effective batch-size multiplier |
--num-gpus | 8 | Total GPUs on the Beaker node |
Source: olmocr/train/README.md:9-12.
Data loader and config
dataloader.py is responsible for reading single-page PDFs and their paired markdown annotations, while config.py centralizes the YAML-driven hyperparameters consumed by train.py and grpo_train.py. The training README explicitly requires "Each PDF needs to be a single page only!", which means long documents must be split before training, and the markdown front matter follows a defined schema:
