`# If we hit an error log it and keep trying try: res = converter.convert(local_path, **_kwargs) except Exception: error_trace = ("\n\n" + traceback.format_exc()).strip()

            if res is not None:
                # Normalize the content
                res.text_content = "\n".join(
                    [line.rstrip() for line in re.split(r"\r?\n", res.text_content)]

                res.text_content = re.sub(r"\n{3,}", "\n\n", res.text_content)

                # Todo
                return res`

maybe here should some fix

I'm also experiencing this error not on every pdf but just on some of them, and it doesn't finish the conversion to md file

@aylitat I'm getting the same error above.

I have a FastAPI application utilizing markitdown through the MarkItDown API. My endpoint receives a pdf file and should be processed by markitdown. Not sure where the exact problem really lies
