Does Markdown include image alt text?

I encountered a case where the extracted HTML included the correct images and alt text. However, the markdown version missed both the images and the alt text. Do you have any ideas what lead to this?

Could you share the URL @dhruvs? We will investigate, but not sure why it would have missed.

Really cool to know. Curious to know if you had a use case around alt text?

The alt text helps LLM understand the image without vision. However, in this case, the markdown didn't contain the image URL or the alt text; it completely skipped the images.

Where you trying to get the images or no?

Yes, I'm trying to get images. Most times, they're included, but in cases, like the one above, they don't seem to be.

Would that be a setting you are willing to share or no? I am interested in grabbing images as well.

Tks! We are investigating if there are issues with the parser!
