| Measured fixture results | Text retained: 100% · Editable table cells: 0 · Page 2 preserved: Yes | Text retained: 68.4% · Editable table cells: 16 · Page 2 preserved: Yes |
| Fixture findings | Extracted the text but merged paragraphs and flattened tables; unsuitable when layout must be retained. | Preserved one editable 4x4 table and the Page 2 token; some heading word spaces were collapsed. |
| Original historical observation | TinyWow PDF to Word retains 100% of text strings across both pages (including the Page-2 token), but collapses the entire document into 3 giant paragraphs with 0 native <w:tbl> tables and saves the OpenXML zip with a `.doc` filename extension. | Downloaded valid DOCX with 1 editable table (16 cells) and Page 2 preserved; extracted headings collapse inter-word spaces (68.4% strict phrase match). |
