"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\"`."
"This is the fastest of the PDF parsing options, and contains detailed metadata about the PDF and its pages, as well as returns one document per page."
