The library doesn't seem to create any headers when creating markdown from PDF documents. Without a header, there is nothing to delineate sections in the document, which is an important function for LLM chunking.

Any plans to add L1/L2 headers to markitdown?

Alternate implementations for PDF parsing

It seems that PDFPlumber and/or PyMuPDF might have better semantic awareness and might be better at preserving headers and such. Would there be any interest in exploring alternative libraries?
