This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (SKILL.md not found in repo tree). The test below is what we measured on Jul 17, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.

Installed the SDK (pip install ComPDFKitConversion 4.1.0) and ran it live: it auto-downloaded a trial license and converted a table PDF to a real .docx that kept the 1 table and every cell. But the free baseline pdf2docx preserved the exact same table and text on the same file, so the headline 'better table/layout preservation' claim showed no measurable delta; the OCR/AI-layout edge is real but gated behind a 525MB model download and stays unmeasured.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 5/10
  • Docs & honesty 4/5

What PDF to Word (ComPDFKit) does

A Python CLI wrapper around the proprietary ComPDFKitConversion SDK that converts PDF or image files to Word, Excel, PPT, HTML, RTF, image, TXT, JSON, Markdown or CSV, with optional OCR and AI layout analysis. Triggers on 'pdf to word', 'convert pdf to docx', 'keep tables/layout'. Needs pip install, a downloaded trial license (200-conversion cap) and, for the AI/OCR features, a ~525MB model.

Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.
