GGUF conversion of jzhang533/PaddleOCR-VL-For-Manga, a PaddleOCR-VL fine-tune for Japanese manga text. Converted for use in the browser via wllama, which needs GGUF rather than safetensors.

Both files are required.

Use the prompt OCR: — these weights are trained on it. The model expects a crop of a single text region, not a whole page.

Converted with convert_hf_to_gguf.py (llama.cpp b10150) to F16, then quantized with llama-quantize to Q4_K_M. The vision projector is Q8_0.

The upstream vision config declares SiglipVisionModel; the converter's mmproj path expects PaddleOCRVisionModel, so that field was renamed before converting. No weights were altered.

On a 7-crop Japanese manga page, Q4_K_M output was character-identical to F16 except for one ambiguous handwritten kanji, so the smaller file costs nothing in practice.

Apache-2.0, inherited from PaddleOCR-VL. Credit for the fine-tune belongs to jzhang533; this repository only changes the file format.
