<Warning>
  To display the Profiles fields, you must **enable Advanced Settings** by clicking the toggle:

  </Frame>
</Warning>

You can set additional options for the operation used in the [PDF.co](http://pdf.co/) module by using **Profiles**. A profile is a string in JSON-like format containing predefined parameters.

### Here’s an example of a Custom Profiles input:

```json theme={null}
{ "outputDataFormat": "base64" }
```

With this input, the [PDF.co](http://pdf.co/) module will return the output in base64 format. You can find the list of available parameters for customizing profiles in the [PDF.co](http://pdf.co/) operation documentation below:

<Tip>
  You can use any regular API parameter from the [API Reference](/api-reference) within Make using the `std_params` feature in profiles. The `std_params` enables the definition of regular API parameters in a JSON format, See [Standard Parameters](/api-reference/profiles#standard-parameters) for detailed documentation and examples.

| `OCRMode`                      | string                        | Auto     | Specifies how OCR (Optical Character Recognition) should process input content, offering various modes to tailor text extraction based on content type such as images, fonts, and vector graphics. For more information, see OCR Extraction Modes.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 | PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG |
| `OCRResolution`                | integer                       | 300      | Use this parameter to change the OCR resolution from the default 300 dpi. The range is from 72 to 1200 dpi.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        | PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG |
| `RotationAngle`                | integer                       | -        | Use manual rotation to handle PDFs with vertically drawn text. Normally, OCR automatically detects page rotation in PDFs and extracts text accurately. However, in some cases, the PDF might not have an actual rotated page --- Rather, the text itself is drawn vertically. In such scenarios, auto-detection may fail. You can use this parameter to manually set the page rotation. The available angles are: 0, 1, 2, 3.                                                                                                                                                      | PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG |
| `LineGroupingMode`             | string                        | None     | Controls line grouping in PDF text extraction. Modes: None (no grouping), GroupByRows (merge rows if all cells align), GroupByColumns (merge cells by column), JoinOrphanedRows (merge single-cell rows to above if no separator).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 | PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG |
| `ConsiderFontColors`           | boolean                       | false    | Controls whether font colors should be considered when detecting table structure and merging text objects during PDF extraction. Set to true to consider font colors.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG |
| `DetectNewColumnBySpacesRatio` | string                        | 1.2      | Controls how spaces between words are interpreted for column detection in PDF text extraction. It defines the ratio of space width that determines when text should be treated as being in separate columns.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       | PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG |
| `AutoAlignColumnsToHeader`     | boolean                       | true     | Controls how columns are detected and aligned during table extraction from PDF documents. It affects both table structure detection and text extraction with formatting preservation. Set to true to automatically align columns to the header row. When set to true (default), the row with the most columns is used as the header, and all other rows are aligned to this structure --- ideal for well-structured tables. When set to false, columns are analyzed independently across all rows to build the structure, which works better for inconsistent or irregular tables. | PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG |
