| Measured fixture results | Text retained: 100% · Editable table cells: 16 · Page 2 preserved: Yes | Text retained: 100% · Editable table cells: 0 · Page 2 preserved: Yes |
| Fixture findings | In the 2-page table anchor benchmark, Convertio achieved 100% text retention across 4/4 headings and 12/12 table cells, impeccably reconstructing a native Word table (1 table, 4 rows, 16 cells) with zero raster degradation. | Suited to full text extraction across multi-page PDFs (100% text retention); because the layout-preserving mode errors out, exported files flatten the 4x4 table into 12 plain paragraphs (0 native tables). |
| Original historical observation | Convertio accepted the sample without login, processed it in 13.65s on the server, preserved 100% vector text and native tables, and exported a 14.2 KB watermark-free DOCX (01_landing.png, 02_result.png, 03_download.png). | After uploading `anchor_pdf2word_v1`, clicking 'Keep the Original Layout' fails with HTTP 500 (`Database error.`) and shows a false offline banner; selecting 'Optimize Layout for Easy Reading' generates an 8.2 KB `.docx` in 1.40s with 100.0% text retention and Page 2 preserved, but flattens the 4x4 table into plain paragraphs (02_workspace.png, 03_download.png). |
