### Public API

- **A reader can type below a DOCX's closing table.** A document that ends with a table ends
with the paragraph Word requires after it. That paragraph was always a point tall with its
mark hidden, so that it could not open a blank page, and no one could type below the table.
Measured in Word on `CompactMono`:
- typed at the caret Word gives the document's end, 70 lines ran into the table's last
cell, a narrow column, over five more pages;
- inserted at the very end, they went into the hidden paragraph and none of them showed.

Where the last page has room for two lines of the document's text below the table, the
paragraph is now an ordinary one. That is 17 of the 62 corpus documents, and in all 17 the
same 70 lines now run onto a new page under the table, visible, with the footer. The other
16 that end in a table fill their last page to the foot and keep the hairline; the export
report says so (`closing paragraph`, `APPROXIMATED`). Neither Word nor LibreOffice moves a
line or adds a page anywhere in the corpus.
- **A DOCX chip takes the room its padding takes on the page.** A chip's fill is written as
run shading, which covers the letters and nothing more, so its horizontal padding was not
in the file. `ModernReceipt`'s status chip, right-aligned with 9pt of padding on each side,

| Transform open/close — rotate/scale about fragment centre (`TransformBegin/EndPayload`) | ✅ `PdfTransformBegin/EndRenderHandler` | ✅ `PptxTransformBegin/EndRenderHandler` (group shape; rotation and centre-pivot scaling via the exterior/interior frame ratio) | ⚠️ inline fallback + one-time capability warning |

paragraph after it: Word writes one there in any case, a line of text tall. Where the last
page has room for two such lines below the table, that paragraph is an ordinary one, which
is where a reader types to add to the document. Where it has not — a page filled to its
foot — it is a point tall, so it cannot open a blank page. At the document's end its mark is
also hidden, where it holds nothing else. Then no one can type below the table. In Word, text
typed at the end of the document goes into the table's last cell, and text inserted at the
very end goes into the hidden paragraph and does not show. The export report says so
(`closing paragraph`, `APPROXIMATED`). An export with no layout behind it has no room to
measure, and keeps the point-tall paragraph.

The horizontal half is carried as an indent: outside any panel, every paragraph by each enclosing container's
margin and padding, a row or a table by the same amount as `w:tblInd`, its own left margin
