Reading Order & Layout
The reading sequence — the spatial-to-linear mapping that conversion is; content can be fully present and still mislead every consumer because it is assembled in the wrong order
What this capability means
A tool has this capability if it preserves the intended reading sequence when converting PDF content from spatial layout into linear Markdown. The content may all be present, but it still fails if the order is wrong.
Boundary: This does not judge whether the text itself is complete or accurate; it judges sequence, not content fidelity.
