Replace benchmark PyMuPDF with PDFBox and fix XLSX rendering - #210
Merge both commits from fix/xlsx-financial-report-borders into main, as requested by the maintainer:
Replace the shared benchmark's PyMuPDF dependency with an Apache PDFBox 3.0.8 helper. Preserve scoring weights, record evaluator identity, reject mixed-evaluator filtered reports, and preserve dependency license/notice resources.
Include the earlier XLSX rendering fix for default/unnamed fonts, Calibri print metrics, double-border precedence, merged headings, and low-memory page flushing, together with its regression tests.
Update benchmark setup documentation and launchers. Java 11+ and a one-time Maven build are now required for shared benchmark evaluation. MiniPdf public conversion APIs are unchanged.
This is the protected-branch PR path after a direct push to main was rejected. No branch protection bypass is requested.
Validation
Exact commands and results:
mvn -o -f tests\MiniPdf.Benchmark\pdfbox\pom.xml package — passed; helper built with dependency licenses/notices retained.
py -3.12 -m unittest discover -s tests\MiniPdf.Benchmark -p test_pdfbox_backend.py -v — passed, 11 tests; Python 3.12 has no PyMuPDF installed. Repeated successfully on the local merge with current main.
dotnet test tests\MiniPdf.Tests\MiniPdf.Tests.csproj --configuration Release --filter "FullyQualifiedName~ExcelToPdfConverterTests|FullyQualifiedName~XlsxIssueFileTests" --verbosity minimal — passed, 85 tests, zero failures/skips. Existing build warnings remain.
git diff HEAD^ HEAD --check — passed on the local merge.

The comparable-case mean changed from 0.8768 to 0.8819 due to the evaluator change, not a MiniPdf rendering improvement. Individual scores move in both directions; establish a fresh PDFBox baseline rather than comparing these evaluators or automatically lowering thresholds. The missing reference cases are XlsxIssue75, XlsxIssue82_5mb, and XlsxIssue82_SampleTestData5mb.
Local evidence is retained under artifacts\pdfbox-migration\ (including verification.json and input hashes); it is not attached to this PR or committed. Candidate PDFs were reused for evaluator migration validation; a new full converter visual run was not performed during this merge request. Runtime libraries/fonts and standalone historical PyMuPDF diagnostic scripts remain outside this migration; this is not complete ASF release clearance.

Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Improved Excel-to-PDF rendering for font fallbacks, Calibri text and column sizing, row heights, chart headings, and unsupported scripts.
Double borders now render with clearer line weights and more consistent results around merged cells, shared edges, and page breaks.
Documentation
Expanded guidance on Excel rendering behavior and benchmark evaluation, including setup requirements and score compatibility.
The changes update XLSX font, row-height, column-width, and border rendering. They also replace PyMuPDF with a PDFBox helper in the shared PDF benchmark and add evaluator metadata, validation, setup instructions, and tests.
Changes: XLSX Rendering
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Workbook font and row defaults src/MiniPdf/ExcelReader.cs, tests/MiniPdf.Tests/ExcelToPdfConverterTests.cs, tests/MiniPdf.Tests/XlsxIssueFileTests.cs
Workbook Normal font settings now inform font-style and row-height parsing. Cells without a valid style index inherit style index 0. Calibri 11 default row height and digit-width calibration are updated, with tests for font defaults and row spacing.
Text measurement and column layout src/MiniPdf/ExcelToPdfConverter.cs, tests/MiniPdf.Tests/ExcelToPdfConverterTests.cs
Rendering uses preferred Calibri metrics where enabled and falls back when text cannot be measured. Chart headings beyond populated data columns and horizontal merged-cell origins receive updated column-width handling. Tests cover font fallback, print metrics, merged headings, and chart anchors.
Border buffering and rendering src/MiniPdf/ExcelToPdfConverter.cs, tests/MiniPdf.Tests/ExcelToPdfConverterTests.cs, FEATURE_PARITY.md
Cell borders are queued and flushed at page transitions and row completion. Double borders use paired strokes, and overlapping non-double edges are segmented around double-border intervals. Tests and parity documentation cover these behaviors.
PDFBox Benchmark
Layer / File(s)
Summary
PDFBox helper and Python transport tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/pdfbox/pom.xml, tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/pdfbox/src/main/java/BenchmarkPdfBox.java, tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/pdfbox_backend.py
A Java 11 Maven helper uses PDFBox 3.0.8 for page counts, text spans, and RGB renders. The Python backend exchanges framed requests and responses, validates data, and manages the helper process.
PDF comparison and evaluator reporting tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/compare_pdfs.py, tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/test_pdfbox_backend.py, tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/README.md
The comparison script uses PDFBox for page counts, text extraction, and visual scoring. Results include evaluator metadata, and filtered merges reject results with different evaluator metadata. Tests cover backend operations, reports, errors, and score handling.
Benchmark prerequisites and launch scripts scripts/Run-Benchmark*.ps1, tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/run_benchmark*.py, tests/MiniPdf.Benchmark/README.md
The shared benchmark setup removes PyMuPDF from its prerequisites and documents Java, the built helper, and the remaining Python packages.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to d2395
The benchmark launchers can present a stale report as a successful run when the comparator fails, and the first full PDFBox run can show false score drops against old PyMuPDF baselines. There are also edge-case XLSX layout issues with print scaling, theme versus explicit Normal fonts, and merged double borders. Fix the launcher exit-code handling before merging; the XLSX issues are lower impact.

Explanation
The title names two changes: replacing the benchmark's PyMuPDF dependency with PDFBox, and fixing XLSX rendering. Both match the objectives and the file summaries (benchmark scripts, PDFBox helper, compare_pdfs.py, ExcelReader.cs, ExcelToPdfConverter.cs, and related tests). The title is slightly long and lists two topics, but it covers the main changes and is not misleading.

@mini-software/core-reviewers Could you please review this PR? It replaces PyMuPDF in the shared benchmark with PDFBox and includes the XLSX rendering fixes described above. Local validation passed: 85 targeted .NET tests and 11 benchmark integration tests. Evaluator migration evidence and known limitations are recorded in the PR description. Thank you.
This PR migrates MiniPdf’s shared visual benchmark from PyMuPDF to Apache PDFBox and updates .NET XLSX rendering without changing public conversion APIs. Evaluator changes require a fresh benchmark baseline; score shifts alone do not indicate rendering improvements.
Changes:
Add a PDFBox helper, evaluator metadata, mixed-evaluator report protection, and integration tests.
Update XLSX font handling, print metrics, merged headings, and double-border rendering with regression tests.
Document Java/Maven setup and remove PyMuPDF from shared benchmark dependencies.

Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Avoid traversing the complete document for each text request.
PDFBox 3.0.8 getText(document) traverses all pages, even when setStartPage and setEndPage select one page. Those settings restrict content processing, not page traversal. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
pdfbox_backend.py Lines 155-157 requests text separately for every page. An N-page PDF therefore causes N² page visits. This adds avoidable work for large reports.
Process only the requested page, or extract all page spans in one traversal.

Resolve the actual Normal font before applying the new defaults.
ReadNormalFontFamily returns the theme minor font before checking styles. With a Calibri theme and an explicit Arial 11 Normal style, this new argument makes unnamed fonts inherit Calibri instead of Arial. The new row-height calibration also reduces those Arial rows to 14.52 points.
Resolve the family through the Normal style's fontId, as ReadNormalFontSize already does. Use the theme only when that font requires theme resolution.

Compare heading sizes at the same print scale.
At 50% print scale, options.FontSize is 5.5, but an ordinary cell's FontSize remains 11. A single-cell row with 30 Latin characters then passes both heading checks without an enlarged font.
With a chart beyond the data columns, this switches the whole sheet to default column widths and zero padding. Previously inferred data columns become narrower and can truncate more text. Normalize both font sizes and width thresholds to the same scale before detecting headings.

Measure a cleared Calibri run with the font that renders it.
When a Calibri cell contains non-Latin letters and the whole string cannot be measured in Calibri, MeasureCellTextWidth adds Calibri widths for the measurable characters and Helvetica widths for the rest. AddExcelText clears the preferred font for the whole run in the same case. The run then renders through the generic fallback path, so the measured width does not match the rendered text. Right-aligned text can be placed at the wrong position.
Use one font decision for both measurement and rendering. When the whole-string Calibri check fails, measure the whole run with the font that AddExcelText renders, rather than summing per-character widths from different fonts.

Match shared border edges with a tolerance instead of exact float equality.
FlushCellBorders finds double-border gaps by exact float equality (ExcelToPdfConverter.cs:1311-1318). A vertical merge can compute its bottom edge differently from the adjacent cell on the same line. With the A4 top margin and 14.52-point rows, single-precision arithmetic gives 740.8497924804688 for the merged bottom and 740.8497314453125 for the adjacent bottom. The keys do not match. A thin edge can then bypass double-border segmentation and draw across the double-border gap.
Compare shared edge positions with a small tolerance, for example 0.01 points, when you match thin edges to double-border intervals.
