## 🚀 **Usage Examples**

### **Basic Usage**
```python
from llm_converter import FileConverter

# Initialize converter
converter = FileConverter(ocr_enabled=True)

# Convert any file
result = converter.convert("document.pdf")
markdown = result.to_markdown()

# Use with LLM
from litellm import completion
response = completion(
    model="openai/gpt-4o",
    messages=[{"content": f"Analyze: {markdown}", "role": "user"}]
)
```

### **Advanced Usage**
```python
# OCR-enabled conversion
converter = FileConverter(ocr_enabled=True, preserve_layout=True)
result = converter.convert("screenshot.png")

# URL conversion
result = converter.convert_url("https://example.com")

# Batch processing
files = ["doc1.pdf", "doc2.docx", "data.xlsx"]
results = [converter.convert(f).to_markdown() for f in files]
```

### **Command Line**
```bash
# Activate environment
source venv/bin/activate

# Convert files
llm-converter document.pdf --output markdown
llm-converter https://example.com --output html
llm-converter "Hello world" --output json
```
