"Under the hood, Unstructured creates different \"elements\" for different chunks of text. By default we combine those together, but you can easily keep that separation by specifying `mode=\"elements\"`."

"Unstructured document loader allow users to pass in a `strategy` parameter that lets `unstructured` know how to partition the document. Currently supported strategies are `\"hi_res\"` (the default) and `\"fast\"`. Hi res partitioning strategies are more accurate, but take longer to process. Fast strategies partition the document more quickly, but trade-off accuracy. Not all document types have separate hi res and fast partitioning strategies. For those document types, the `strategy` kwarg is ignored. In some cases, the high res strategy will fallback to fast if there is a dependency missing (i.e. a model for document partitioning). You can see how to apply a strategy to an `UnstructuredFileLoader` below."
"Processing PDF documents works exactly the same way. Unstructured detects the file type and extracts the same types of elements. Modes of operation are \n",
"- `single` all the text from all elements are combined into one (default)\n",
"- `elements` maintain individual elements\n",
"- `paged` texts from each page are only combined"

"If you need to post process the `unstructured` elements after extraction, you can pass in a list of `Element` -> `Element` functions to the `post_processors` kwarg when you instantiate the `UnstructuredFileLoader`. This applies to other Unstructured loaders as well. Below is an example. Post processors are only applied if you run the loader in `\"elements\"` mode."

"If you want to get up and running with less set up, you can simply run `pip install unstructured` and use `UnstructuredAPIFileLoader` or `UnstructuredAPIFileIOLoader`. That will process your document using the hosted Unstructured API. You can generate a free Unstructured API key [here](https://www.unstructured.io/api-key/). The [Unstructured documentation](https://unstructured-io.github.io/) page will have instructions on how to generate an API key once they’re available. Check out the instructions [here](https://github.com/Unstructured-IO/unstructured-api#dizzy-instructions-for-using-the-docker-image) if you’d like to self-host the Unstructured API or run it locally."
