In the case of Korean PDF, there is a case where the data type of char.fontname is bytes in line 64 of the text/pdfminer/core.py file.

Example Code

semantic_pipeline = processing.SemanticIngestionPipeline(
            openai_api_key="",
            model="text-embedding-3-large",
            min_tokens=64,
            max_tokens=1024,
        )
        parser = DocumentParser(
            processing_pipeline=semantic_pipeline,
        )
        parsed_content = parser.parse(file_path)
