Handles an 84-page hybrid report end to end, but quality degrades on signatures and multicolumn pages rather than staying uniform across the document.
What was measured
Complex Document Handling
Maintains quality across long, multi-section, and mixed-content documents without degradation.
decisive for this rankingtransformation
The subject explicitly says complex PDF, so sustained quality across long, mixed-content documents is central to the tool’s ability to do the job. (3 of 3 judges)

Input — what we sent
Hybrid Earnings Report
A long, real-world hybrid annual report used to benchmark end-to-end PDF-to-markdown conversion. It combines native text, financial tables, charts/graphics, and scanned signature/stamp regions, stressing preservation of document structure, reading order, and embedded visual content across a multi-section report.
Why this input is hard
- · Native digital text extraction
- · Complex financial table preservation
- · Chart and graphic retention
- · Image-based signatures and stamps
- · Reading order across a long multi-section report
- · Markdown quality and consistency
Output — unretouched

Advanced Features✓ WorkedSeparately extracts chart content into textual summaries and value tables, including a waterfall chart and bar charts with year/value pairs and growth statistics.Reading Order & Structure✗ FailedBreaks the two-column reading order on the annual-report page, so headings and body text no longer follow the source navigation cleanly.Table Preservation◐ MixedReconstructs the 2011–2015 financial summary table with rows and columns intact, but misses a small number of currency symbols in the extracted values.Visual Content Retention✗ FailedDoes not retain handwritten signature content as visual output on the signatures page, leaving only partial surrounding legal text and no clearly identifiable signatures.
