Description
### Bug
When processing a PDF with `DocumentConverter.convert()` using a `page_range=(start, end)`
For example,
conv_res = doc_converter.convert(source='2206.01062.pdf', page_range=(7, 9))
text from page 9 appeared in the Markdown generated for page 7.
This issue does *not* occur when processing one page at a time by using `page_range=(7, 7)`
...
### Steps to reproduce
Use the following Python script process the PDF
```python
pipeline_options = PdfPipelineOptions()
pipeline_options.images_scale = IMAGE_RESOLUTION_SCALE
pipeline_options.generate_page_images = True
pipeline_options.generate_picture_images = True
doc_converter = DocumentConverter(
format_options={
InputFormat.PDF: PdfFormatOption(pipeline_options=pipeline_options)
}
)
conv_res = doc_converter.convert(source='2206.01062.pdf', page_range=(7, 9))
conv_res.document.save_as_markdown('2206.md', image_mode=ImageRefMode.EMBEDDED)
```
