Three hand-laid OOXML containers, every part written out by hand and zipped
with a fixed date_time so they are byte-reproducible. No converter output
anywhere in them: a .docx written by the converter and read by the converter
proves only that the converter agrees with itself, and would stay green through
any conversion defect that is symmetric -- which is most of them.
two-line-krav.docx heading + label/value on one line (the docx mirror of
the PDF fixture)
no-styles-krav.docx the SAME document without word/styles.xml
two-line-krav.xlsx sheet name as heading + label/value on one row
THE FIXTURES FOUND A REAL DEFECT IN THE SEAM THEY WERE MEANT TO PIN. The
converter call used pypandoc's TEXT entry point, which takes an `encoding`
because it treats its source as text -- and that corrupts a zip. The xlsx
fixture failed with `Failed to unpack XLSX archive: not enough bytes` while
reading correctly from disk with the same binary. The docx of the same shape
happened to survive, which is the part worth writing down: the defect is silent
for some inputs and fatal for others, so "it worked on the file I tried" was
never evidence. Input now goes through a temporary file.
Two measurements while building, both the same shape -- structurally valid
input, silently reduced output, exit code 0, no warning:
- Without word/styles.xml the docx extracts as flat prose with no heading. A
fixture lacking that part would pin the body and pin nothing about structure.
Committed as a negative control that RUNS rather than a sentence in a README.
- With inline strings rather than a shared string table, the xlsx extracts with
the sheet name intact and every cell value gone. The fixture uses a dimension
element and a shared string table instead.
The frozen literals are pinned to a NAMED converter version, asserted beside
them: a frozen literal without one says "these bytes" without saying what
produced them.
Suite 908 -> 913. Fixtures regenerate byte-identically.

Order G2a. Populates the optional `[extract]` extra for the first time with
one parser, `pdfplumber>=0.11.10,<0.12` (MIT), and wires `pdf` through it.
The default install is untouched: exactly one runtime dependency, stdlib
otherwise, enforced by test_packaging.py.
The gate for `pdf` becomes an import probe rather than a frozenset membership
test, exactly as extract.py's docstring had promised. The rejection does not
change: without the extra, `pdf` still raises `extractor_extra_missing` with
the same message. That behaviour is asserted UNCONDITIONALLY via a sys.modules
monkeypatch, so it holds on machines where the parser is installed too — a
skip would have preserved nothing there. Verified in a clean venv without the
extra: 589 passed, 7 skipped; with it, 596 passed.
`docx`/`xlsx` are unchanged and still fail fast — the extra names exactly what
it ships.
The parser choice was forced by measurement, not preference (b73dd9d,
docs/2026-08-21-g2-pdf-extraction-measurement.md): on a real requirement table
pdfplumber keeps 4 of 4 rows with label and value on one line, where pypdf,
pdfminer.six and pymupdf each keep 0 of 4. pymupdf is additionally out on
licence (AGPL-3.0), which an MIT package must not push onto a consumer.
Three facts from that measurement are now carried in code rather than in a
report:
- Extracted text is pinned to an exact transitive parser version
(pdfplumber pins pdfminer.six==20260107; date-stamped, no stability
contract). tests/test_extract.py freezes the expected text of a committed
hand-written fixture so a parser upgrade breaks something visible instead of
drifting silently. Reasoning at the declaration site and in
tests/fixtures/README.md.
- Determinism within a version is now held by a test, not only measured once.
- Drawn content does not survive extraction. Every pdf extraction emits the
new `ExtractionWarning`: figures have no text to recover, so a bundle built
from drawn documents is incomplete by construction. Stated categorically
rather than detected — deciding "is there a figure here" is the layout
heuristic G2b declined.
Two new error codes, both mirroring existing patterns: `extractor_empty_pdf`
(a scanned/image-only PDF, refused rather than persisted as an empty concept)
and `extractor_pdf_error` (parser failure wrapped, never leaked).
Structured table recovery (G2b) is NOT implemented and is documented as out of
scope: two independent parsers return the same wrong shape, so the breakage is
document geometry, not a library choice. PDFs enter as prose.
Also corrects an install promise this change would otherwise have published:
the README no longer presents a bare `pip install 'llm-ingestion-okf[extract]'`
as working, because the package is not on an index.
