| Fixture findings | Text and editable tables were retained in this test; an extension ad resembled a download prompt. | Under anchor_pdf2word_v1, it produced an 8.1 KB editable Word document with 100% text retention; tables are rendered as formatted text lines without native grid. |
| Original historical observation | CleverPDF pairs top-tier OpenXML reconstruction (100% text retention + 16-cell native <w:tbl> table + 30-minute auto-delete & instant Delete button in 03_download.png) with an aggressive full-screen green 'DOWNLOAD EXTENSION' ad overlay (03_ad_modal.png) that drags down its interaction restraint score. | EveryTool4U converted the test PDF into an 8.1 KB editable Word document in 0.33s using client-side JavaScript, retaining 100% text with zero watermarks. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Users with an ad blocker who want a 100% free, no-login converter that accurately reconstructs native 16-cell Word tables | Privacy-conscious users needing quick extraction of PDF text into editable Word without cloud uploads |
