The documents category is built for parsers, editors, and OCR. The PDF set includes a simple one-pager, a document with a bookmarked table of contents, an AcroForm with named fields listed in its spec, an image-only 'scanned' twin of the simple document paired for OCR testing, tables and landscape layouts, a text-light long document, and a deliberately truncated PDF for error handling. Annotation and tagged-intent SAMPLE PDFs cover FreeText/highlight tooling and accessibility-structure experiments (not certified PDF/A or PDF/UA). Word and Excel files come formatted and plain, with documented styles and formulas, and there's a set built for the features parsers and converters actually miss: a workbook with embedded bar and line charts, one with merged cells, conditional formatting, data validation and frozen panes, a Word document with real tracked changes, another with anchored reviewer comments, a slide deck with speaker notes, and a café receipt as a searchable-versus-scanned OCR pair. Markdown CommonMark↔GFM twins, LaTeX+BibTeX, and HL7/EDI message variants round out text tooling. Text files ship in UTF-8, UTF-8 with BOM, and UTF-16 with documented encodings and line endings. Every file lists its internal structure, so you're testing against a known specification rather than a mystery document.
