Hello, I’m getting the error ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ‘3,585’

```python
page_list = pymupdf4llm.to_text(
  file_path,
  page_chunks=True,
  use_ocr=False,
  ignore_images=True,
  ignore_graphics=True,
  write_images=False,
  embed_images=False,
  header=False,
  footer=False,
  pages=[206],
  show_progress=True,
)

```

Can you confirm what versions of PyMuPDF & PyMuPDF4LLM you are using? I am using version `1.27.2.2` for both and the file parses well for me with no error.

Aha! Interesting. I was on tabulate `0.9.0` and it was good, when I upgrade to `0.10.0` then I see the error too. Need to investigate further!
