A PDF carries no notion of a heading -- a heading in a PDF is a typographic
fact -- so the text stream `pdfplumber` hands the segment proposer has already
thrown away the only evidence there was. The `docx` path never had that problem:
the converter emits ATX headings and `_ATX` cuts on them. Two readers close the
gap, and both are OFF.
`--pdf-headings font` infers a heading from the conjunction this repository
already measured (size above the document's character-weighted body median AND
a bold font name, recall 1.000 / precision 0.846) and emits it as ATX in the
SAME markdown the office path produces, so `_ATX` applies unchanged and no
PDF-only heading grammar exists.
It stays off BY MEASUREMENT, and the measurement is the point of the round:
against the operator's unit worksheet it takes `pdf` from 2 of 8 to 0 of 8,
losing two exact matches. The mechanism of the loss is stated rather than
guessed -- on those documents the outline rule already recovers the document's
own numbered chapters, so a second heading source can only add. Whole-corpus
screen: 25 of 32 `pdf` change, 0 of 5 `docx`, 0 of 2 `xlsx`. The default bundle
is byte-identical before and after this commit (`diff -r`, exit 0).
`--ocr` reads a page as an image when its own text never arrived: empty, or
`(cid:N)` placeholder codes at or above a threshold READ OFF a measured
distribution -- 834 pages over 32 files, 818 at exactly 0.0 and 16 at 0.93 or
above, nothing in between. On the one corpus document with the failure: 95.07 %
cid to 0 %, 44 to 2561 words of four or more letters, 17 to 18 pages with text.
Its engine is an optional dependency group and never a runtime dependency; a
packaging test pins both halves, and without the group every affected file is a
coded rejection (`extractor_ocr_group_missing`) rather than a crash.
Also corrects two stale published facts found while measuring: the README still
said two segmentation rules were on by default after `f6fea13` made it three,
and CLAUDE.md's K2 digest named the round-3 default. The current default is
492 concepts / 944 files, `bdefa679...`.
