Problem Description
Currently, open webui will use OCR anyway when uploading documents.
However, for vision-supported models, just convey the images of documents may be better, especially when there're some pictures in documents that OCR cannot handled.
Desired Solution you'd like
Provide an option in documents, enabling open webui to convert documents, such as PDFs or docx, to images, and pass images to models instead of text results when documents are uploaded for vision supported models. For models that do not support vision, use the original OCR solution.
