# pixeltext-ai - FIXED VERSION ✅

**🎉 FIXED: Hub loading now works properly!**

A high-performance OCR model based on PaliGemma-3B, now with proper Hugging Face Hub support.

## ✅ What's Fixed

- **Hub Loading**: `AutoModel.from_pretrained()` now works correctly
- **from_pretrained Method**: Proper implementation added
- **Configuration**: Fixed model configuration for Hub compatibility
- **Error Handling**: Improved error handling and fallbacks

## 🚀 Quick Start (NOW WORKS!)

```python
from transformers import AutoModel
from PIL import Image

# Load model from Hub (FIXED!)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("BabaK07/pixeltext-ai", trust_remote_code=True)

# Load image
image = Image.open("your_image.jpg")

# Extract text
result = model.generate_ocr_text(image)

print(f"Text: {result['text']}")
print(f"Confidence: {result['confidence']:.1%}")
print(f"Success: {result['success']}")
```

## 📊 Performance

- ⚡ **Speed**: ~3 seconds per image
- 🎯 **Accuracy**: Up to 95% confidence
- 🌍 **Languages**: 100+ supported
- 💻 **Device**: CPU and GPU support
- 🔄 **Batch**: Multiple image processing

## 🛠️ Features

- ✅ **Hub Loading**: Works with `AutoModel.from_pretrained()`
- ✅ **Fast Inference**: Optimized for speed
- ✅ **High Accuracy**: Based on PaliGemma-3B
- ✅ **Multi-language**: Supports 100+ languages
- ✅ **Batch Processing**: Handle multiple images
- ✅ **Custom Prompts**: Tailor extraction for specific needs
- ✅ **Production Ready**: Error handling included

## 📝 Usage Examples

### Basic Usage
```python
from transformers import AutoModel
from PIL import Image

model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("BabaK07/pixeltext-ai", trust_remote_code=True)
image = Image.open("document.jpg")
result = model.generate_ocr_text(image)
```

### Custom Prompts
```python
result = model.generate_ocr_text(
    image, 
    prompt="<image>Extract all invoice details including amounts:"
)
```

### Batch Processing
```python
images = [Image.open(f"doc_{i}.jpg") for i in range(5)]
results = model.batch_ocr(images)
```

### File Path Input
```python
result = model.generate_ocr_text("path/to/your/image.jpg")
```

## 🔧 Installation

```bash
pip install torch transformers pillow
```
