Dated task assertions

Only the assertion below was checked. Local PDF tests use generated English documents. These results do not measure customer success, OCR accuracy or future availability. Tests older than 30 days do not count as a recent pass in task planning.

No execution test for this service. Do not treat documented capability as tested.
