Hi everyone, I'm building a local AI agent with Ollama and exploring dynamic PDF extraction. Since Ollama can't directly process PDFs, I'm extracting text and passing it via prompts. Should I use PDFPlumber, a vector database (RAG), or another approach for accurate document understanding? Guide me !

User seeks guidance on PDF processing methods for local AI agents built with Ollama, comparing approaches like PDFPlumber extraction, vector database RAG systems, and alternative techniques for accura
