PaddleOCR-VL Introduction¶
PaddleOCR-VL is a SOTA and resource-efficient model tailored for document parsing. Its core component is PaddleOCR-VL-0.9B, a compact yet powerful vision-language model (VLM) that integrates a NaViT-style dynamic resolution visual encoder with the ERNIE-4.5-0.3B language model to enable accurate element recognition. This innovative model efficiently supports 109 languages and excels in recognizing complex elements (e.g., text, tables, formulas, and charts), while maintaining minimal resource consumption. Through comprehensive evaluations on widely used public benchmarks and in-house benchmarks, PaddleOCR-VL achieves SOTA performance in both page-level document parsing and element-level recognition. It significantly outperforms existing solutions, exhibits strong competitiveness against top-tier VLMs, and delivers fast inference speeds. These strengths make it highly suitable for practical deployment in real-world scenarios.
1. Environment Preparation¶
Install PaddlePaddle and PaddleOCR:
python -m pip install paddlepaddle-gpu==3.2.0 -i https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/packages/stable/cu126/
python -m pip install -U "paddleocr[doc-parser]"
python -m pip install https://paddle-whl.bj.bcebos.com/nightly/cu126/safetensors/safetensors-0.6.2.dev0-cp38-abi3-linux_x86_64.whl
For Windows users, please use WSL or a Docker container.
2. Quick Start¶
PaddleOCR-VL supports two usage methods: CLI command line and Python API. The CLI command line method is simpler and suitable for quickly verifying functionality, while the Python API method is more flexible and suitable for integration into existing projects.
2.1 Command Line Usage¶
Run a single command to quickly test the PaddleOCR-VL :
paddleocr doc_parser -i https://paddle-model-ecology.bj.bcebos.com/paddlex/imgs/demo_image/paddleocr_vl_demo.png

For explanation of the result parameters, refer to 2.2 Python Script Integration.
Note: The default model for the production line is relatively large, which may result in slower inference speed. It is recommended to use inference acceleration frameworks to enhance VLM inference performance for faster inference.
2.2 Python Script Integration¶
The command line method is for quick testing and visualization. In actual projects, you usually need to integrate the model via code. You can perform pipeline inference with just a few lines of code as shown below:
from paddleocr import PaddleOCRVL
pipeline = PaddleOCRVL()
# pipeline = PaddleOCRVL(use_doc_orientation_classify=True) # Use use_doc_orientation_classify to enable/disable document orientation classification model
# pipeline = PaddleOCRVL(use_doc_unwarping=True) # Use use_doc_unwarping to enable/disable document unwarping module
# pipeline = PaddleOCRVL(use_layout_detection=False) # Use use_layout_detection to enable/disable layout detection module
output = pipeline.predict("./paddleocr_vl_demo.png")
for res in output:
res.print() ## Print the structured prediction output
res.save_to_json(save_path="output") ## Save the current image's structured result in JSON format
res.save_to_markdown(save_path="output") ## Save the current image's result in Markdown format
For PDF files, each page will be processed individually and generate a separate Markdown file. If you want to convert the entire PDF to a single Markdown file, use the following method:
from pathlib import Path
from paddleocr import PaddleOCRVL
input_file = "./your_pdf_file.pdf"
output_path = Path("./output")
pipeline = PaddleOCRVL()
output = pipeline.predict(input=input_file)
markdown_list = []
markdown_images = []
for res in output:
md_info = res.markdown
markdown_list.append(md_info)
markdown_images.append(md_info.get("markdown_images", {}))
markdown_texts = pipeline.concatenate_markdown_pages(markdown_list)
mkd_file_path = output_path / f"{Path(input_file).stem}.md"
mkd_file_path.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
with open(mkd_file_path, "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
f.write(markdown_texts)
for item in markdown_images:
if item:
for path, image in item.items():
file_path = output_path / path
file_path.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
image.save(file_path)
Note:
- In the example code, the parameters
use_doc_orientation_classify
anduse_doc_unwarping
are all set toFalse
by default. These indicate that document orientation classification and document image unwarping are disabled. You can manually set them toTrue
if needed.

(2) Call the predict()
method of the PaddleOCR-VL production line object for inference prediction. This method will return a list of results. Additionally, the production line also provides the predict_iter()
Method. The two are completely consistent in terms of parameter acceptance and result return. The difference lies in that predict_iter()
returns a generator
, which can process and obtain prediction results step by step. It is suitable for scenarios involving large datasets or where memory conservation is desired. You can choose either of these two methods based on actual needs. Below are the parameters of the predict()
method and their descriptions:

3. Enhancing VLM Inference Performance Using Inference Acceleration Frameworks¶
The inference performance under the default configuration has not been fully optimized and may not meet actual production requirements. PaddleOCR supports enhancing the inference performance of VLM through inference acceleration frameworks such as vLLM and SGLang, thereby accelerating the inference speed in production lines. The usage process mainly consists of two steps:
- Start the VLM inference service;
- Configure the PaddleOCR production line to invoke the VLM inference service as a client.
3.1 Starting the VLM Inference Service¶
3.1.1 Using Docker Images¶
PaddleOCR provides Docker images for quickly starting the vLLM inference service. The service can be started using the following command:
docker run \
-it \
--rm \
--gpus all \
--network host \
ccr-2vdh3abv-pub.cnc.bj.baidubce.com/paddlepaddle/paddlex-genai-vllm-server
The service listens on port 8080 by default.
When starting the container, you can pass in parameters to override the default configuration. The parameters are consistent with the paddleocr genai_server
command (see the next subsection for details). For example:
docker run \
-it \
--rm \
--gpus all \
--network host \
ccr-2vdh3abv-pub.cnc.bj.baidubce.com/paddlepaddle/paddlex-genai-vllm-server \
paddlex_genai_server --model_name PaddleOCR-VL-0.9B --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8118 --backend vllm
If you are using an NVIDIA 50 series graphics card (Compute Capacity >= 12), you need to install a specific version of FlashAttention before launching the service.
docker run \
-it \
--rm \
--gpus all \
--network host \
ccr-2vdh3abv-pub.cnc.bj.baidubce.com/paddlepaddle/paddlex-genai-vllm-server \
/bin/bash
python -m pip install flash-attn==2.8.3
paddlex_genai_server --model_name PaddleOCR-VL-0.9B --backend vllm --port 8118
3.1.2 Installation and Usage via PaddleOCR CLI¶
Since the inference acceleration framework may have dependency conflicts with the PaddlePaddle framework, it is recommended to install it in a virtual environment. Taking vLLM as an example:
# Create a virtual environment
python -m venv .venv
# Activate the environment
source .venv/bin/activate
# Install PaddleOCR
python -m pip install "paddleocr[doc-parser]"
# Install dependencies for inference acceleration service
paddleocr install_genai_server_deps vllm
Usage of the paddleocr install_genai_server_deps
command:
The currently supported frameworks are named vllm
and sglang
, corresponding to vLLM and SGLang, respectively.
If you are using an NVIDIA 50 series graphics card (Compute Capacity >= 12), you need to install a specific version of FlashAttention before launching the service.
After installation, you can start the service using the paddleocr genai_server
command:
The parameters supported by this command are as follows:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
--model_name |
Model name |
--model_dir |
Model directory |
--host |
Server hostname |
--port |
Server port number |
--backend |
Backend name, i.e., the name of the inference acceleration framework used. Options are vllm or sglang . |
--backend_config |
A YAML file can be specified, which contains backend configurations. |
3.2 How to Use the Client¶
After starting the VLM inference service, the client can invoke the service through PaddleOCR.
3.2.1 CLI Invocation¶
The backend type (vllm-server
or sglang-server
) can be specified via --vl_rec_backend
, and the service address can be specified via --vl_rec_server_url
. For example:
paddleocr doc_parser --input paddleocr_vl_demo.png --vl_rec_backend vllm-server --vl_rec_server_url http://127.0.0.1:8118/v1
3.2.2 Python API Invocation¶
Pass the vl_rec_backend
and vl_rec_server_url
parameters when creating the PaddleOCRVL
object:
3.2.3 Service-Oriented Deployment¶
The fields VLRecognition.genai_config.backend
and VLRecognition.genai_config.server_url
can be modified in the configuration file, for example:
3.3 Performance Tuning¶
The default configuration is tuned on a single NVIDIA A100 and assumes exclusive client service, so it may not be suitable for other environments. If users encounter performance issues during actual use, they can try the following optimization methods.
3.3.1 Server-side Parameter Adjustment¶
Different inference acceleration frameworks support different parameters. Refer to their respective official documentation to learn about available parameters and when to adjust them:
The PaddleOCR VLM inference service supports parameter tuning through configuration files. The following example demonstrates how to adjust the gpu-memory-utilization
and max-num-seqs
parameters of the vLLM server:
- Create a YAML file named
vllm_config.yaml
with the following content:
gpu-memory-utilization: 0.3
max-num-seqs: 128
2. Specify the configuration file path when starting the service, for example, using the `paddleocr genai_server` command:
```bash
paddleocr genai_server --model_name PaddleOCR-VL-0.9B --backend vllm --backend_config vllm_config.yaml
If you are using a shell that supports process substitution (such as Bash), you can also pass configuration items directly when starting the service without creating a configuration file:
```bash
paddleocr genai_server --model_name PaddleOCR-VL-0.9B --backend vllm --backend_config <(echo -e 'gpu-memory-utilization: 0.3\nmax-num-seqs: 128')
3.3.2 Client-Side Parameter Adjustment¶
PaddleOCR groups sub-images from single or multiple input images and initiates concurrent requests to the server. Therefore, the number of concurrent requests significantly impacts performance.
- For the CLI and Python API, the maximum number of concurrent requests can be adjusted using the
vl_rec_max_concurrency
parameter. - For service-based deployment, modify the
VLRecognition.genai_config.max_concurrency
field in the configuration file.
When there is a one-to-one correspondence between the client and the VLM inference service, and the server-side resources are sufficient, the number of concurrent requests can be appropriately increased to enhance performance. If the server needs to support multiple clients or has limited computational resources, the number of concurrent requests should be reduced to prevent service abnormalities caused by resource overload.
3.3.3 Recommendations for Performance Tuning on Common Hardware¶
The following configurations are tailored for scenarios with a one-to-one correspondence between the client and the VLM inference service.
NVIDIA RTX 3060
- Server-Side
- vLLM:
gpu-memory-utilization=0.8
4. Serving¶
If you need to directly apply PaddleOCR-VL in your Python project, you can refer to the example code in 2.2 Python Script Integration.
Additionally, PaddleOCR offers other deployment methods, detailed as follows:
1.1 Install Dependencies¶
Run the following command to install the PaddleX serving plugin via PaddleX CLI:
1.2 Run the Server¶
Run the server via PaddleX CLI:
You should see information similar to the following:
INFO: Started server process [63108]
INFO: Waiting for application startup.
INFO: Application startup complete.
INFO: Uvicorn running on http://0.0.0.0:8080 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
To adjust configurations (such as model path, batch size, deployment device, etc.), specify --pipeline
as a custom configuration file. Refer to PaddleOCR and PaddleX for the mapping between PaddleOCR pipelines and PaddleX pipeline registration names, as well as how to obtain and modify PaddleX pipeline configuration files.
The command-line options related to serving are as follows:
Name | Description |
---|---|
--pipeline |
PaddleX pipeline registration name or pipeline configuration file path. |
--device |
Deployment device for the pipeline. By default, a GPU will be used if available; otherwise, a CPU will be used." |
--host |
