| 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 | Following conversion of anchor_pdf2word_v1, XML inspection confirmed that all 4/4 headings, 3/3 body paragraphs, and the page-2 token were preserved as editable text runs, with the 4x4 financial table reconstructed as genuine Word table elements rather than rasterized images. | Text was retained, but tables became ordinary paragraphs; distinguish download ads from the real control. |
| Original historical observation | PDF Jetty (https://pdfjetty.com/pdf-to-word/) converted the test PDF into a 10.0 KB editable .docx in 17.99s server wait; tables and text aligned accurately. | PDF2Go exports an 11.2 KB .docx with 100% text retention, Page 2 preservation, and an instant 'Delete Task' button, but flattens the 4×4 financial table into 61 separate paragraphs rather than a native Word table and displays green ad buttons below the result card (02_workspace.png, 03_download.png). |
