Pine Property Services: Schedule of dilapidations

Schedule of dilapidations for Pine Property Services. A served dilapidations schedule against U-04: 5 remedial items totalling 22,430.00 USD, preliminaries at 8 percent of that, contract administration at 5 percent of the running total, and 5,653.85 USD of lost rent for a 8 week programme, giving a 31,089.47 USD claim. Each on cost states the base it is charged on, so the compounding order is visible rather than assumed.

Testing contract

Expected to pass
Scenario
Recompute the two on costs and the loss of rent from the bases the schedule names.
Expected result
Preliminaries are 8 percent of 22430.00, which is 1794.40; contract administration is 5 percent of 24224.40, not of 22430.00, which is 1211.22; and loss of rent is 8 fifty-seconds of 36750.00, which is 5653.85. The total is 31089.47.

What is a .pdf file?

PDF (Portable Document Format) is a page-oriented format that fixes layout, fonts, and vector and raster graphics so a page renders identically anywhere. A `%PDF-` header is followed by numbered objects, a cross-reference table mapping each to a byte offset, and a trailer; edits append incremental updates rather than rewrite the file. Page content is a stream of drawing operators, so a PDF holds no words or paragraphs, only positioned glyph runs. Adobe released it in 1993 and gave it to ISO as ISO 32000-1 in 2008.

How to use this file

Use an example PDF to test text extraction, rendering, metadata parsing, AcroForm handling, and OCR pipelines: checking that extraction reconstructs reading order from glyph positions, that a scanned page yields no text, and that an incremental update leaves earlier revisions in the file.

How to use this file for testing

“Pine Property Services: Schedule of dilapidations” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Data import. Realistic faker-generated datasets with documented schemas for testing import and ETL flows.

Documented properties for this file: 2 pages. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such, expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Document fixtures list their internal structure (pages, fields, tracked changes, embedded objects) in the spec table. Test extractors, converters, and OCR against that known structure, and compare searchable↔scanned or format-twin companions when present.

Code examples

import pdfplumber  # pip install pdfplumber

with pdfplumber.open("dilapidations-schedule.pdf") as pdf:
    print(len(pdf.pages), "pages")
    print(pdf.pages[0].extract_text())
