In real testing, a two-page document containing financial tables was converted in just 0.72s into a 14.8 KB standard .docx file; deterministic XML inspection verified 100% text retention across 4 headings and 3 key body phrases, with the 4x4 financial table reconstructed into a native Word table object (16 cells perfectly aligned) and two-page layout preserved without watermarks or forced registrations.
