Why pdf2image? #90

As a beginner in the coding/RAG space working with windows, why use a pdf to image converter that requires Poppler? I get that Poppler can be installed on Windows, but the process is more complicated/time consuming than on the other operating systems. So why not make it easier for coding beigneers on windows by using a library like PyMuPdf, etc. that doesn't require the additional step of getting Poppler working right? Poppler has its advantages, but I don't see how those advantages help with RAG applications. I might be wrong in my assessment, but I just wanted to put this out there incase there is any chance/hope of reducing the complexity of running Byaldi on Windows, even if it's by a tiny bit.
