I have a quick question regarding our Mistral OCR deployment on Azure AI Foundry. For the same document and the same request payload (same model, document.type: "image_url" , include_image_base64: true ), I'm seeing different table output formats across pages. On one page, the table is returned as HTML ( <table><tr><th>... ) On another page, a similar table is returned as Markdown ( | column1 | column2 | ... | ) Could you please help me understand: What determines whether the table is returned as HTML or Markdown? Is there any request parameter or configuration to force the output to always be in Markdown (or HTML)?

Mistral OCR - table output sometimes HTML, sometimes Markdown, why?

I have a quick question regarding our Mistral OCR deployment on Azure AI Foundry.

For the same document and the same request payload (same model, document.type: "image_url", include_image_base64: true), I'm seeing different table output formats across pages.

On one page, the table is returned as HTML (<table><tr><th>...)
On another page, a similar table is returned as Markdown (| column1 | column2 | ... |)

Could you please help me understand:
